xargs

USING xargs in a korn shell with Services for UNIX.  

according to  http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=04/04/13/211209 one should use the -n1 option,
this should feed one input at a time... however, it didn't work in SFU 3.5.
find /dev/fs/H/ARCHIVE/ -type f -name *.jpg -print | xargs -nl -i cp {} /dev/fs/H/ALL-PIX 

WHAT WORKED:

find /dev/fs/H/ARCHIVE/ -type f -name *.jpg -print | xargs -i cp {} /dev/fs/H/ALL-PIX
