How can I copy all files of specific type to a specific folder using Mac's Terminal.

find . -name '*.STY' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -I '{}' /usr/bin/rsync -avR "{}" "./styleFiles_chekad/"

Above shell script does the job and keeps the folders in tact. What if I want don't want the subfolders and want to have all the files right in the "styleFiles_chekad" . However, it is very complicated. Is there a n easier way to do this? The following command does not work!

cp . -name '*.STY' styleFiles_chekad/

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS. Anyone can recommend a good resource for bash scripting?
