Clarified script and edited man page

Hello and thank you for the nice tool! I had some trouble understanding
the usage due to some discrepancies with the man page or comments and
the code.

I believe this small patch will help new users (like me) to not be
confused.

- The flags in usage() still showed [-n], this is no longer used
- Removed inaccurate reference to dry-run in man page
- Missing reference to 3rd arg in comments of copy_files()
