# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_PROG_CP_S
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# Check how to make a copy by creating a symbolic link to the original -
# it defines the variable CP_S for further use, which you should in fact
# treat like it used to be with be LN_S. The actual value is assured to be
# either LN_S (if the filesystem supports symbolic links) or CP (if the
# filesystem does not know about symbolic links and you need a copy of
# original file to have the same text in both places). In a gnu
# environment it will simply set CP_S="cp -s" since the gnu "cp"-command
# has the "-s" flag. You shall not try to use this command on directories
# since it would require a "-r" in the case of a copy that is not
# supported explicitly here. (I'm not sure if some "cp"-commands out there
# would barf at usage of "-r" on a normal file).
#
# Use CP_S to create a copy of read-only data - if your filesystem
# supports it then a symbolic link is created - a process that is quicker
# and space-saving. However, if the target fs does not support symbolic
# links, just copy the data. Unlike ac_prog_ln_s this macro will never
# fail to set the CP_S ac_subst to something that works.
