As for copying without prompting, you may have to tinker with the alias for cp thats probably set in your ~/.bashrc or /etc/bashrc.

cp -i will prompt you only if there is another file with the same name present in the location you are copying to. AFAIK if you want to prompt for each file being copied you would need to write a short script. A for loop with printf, read, an if statement and cp should do the trick.
