 3.1 Copy-out mode
 =================
 
 In copy-out mode, cpio copies files into an archive.  It reads a list
 of filenames, one per line, on the standard input, and writes the
 archive onto the standard output.  A typical way to generate the list
 of filenames is with the find command; you should give find the -depth
 option to minimize problems with permissions on directories that are
 unreadable.   Options.
