I have what I think should be a pretty easy problem to solve.

In directory 1 are files 1,2,3,4,5.
Directory 2 contains files 2 and 4.

All the files are jpeg images and the files in directory 2 have been
modified more recently than those in directory 1.  I want to copy
files 2 and 4 from directory 1 to directory 2.

Based on my limited past experience with linux I have a hunch that
there is a very elegant and efficient way to accomplish this task.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
