mmove - move or rename an MSDOS file or subdirectory
Note of warning
This manpage has been automatically generated from
mtools's texinfo documentation, and may not be entirely
accurate or complete. See the end of this man page for
details.
Description
The mmove command is used to moves or renames an existing
MS-DOS file or subdirectory. mmove [-v] [-D clash_option]
sourcefile targetfile mmove [-v] [-D clash_option]
sourcefile [ sourcefiles... ] targetdirectory
Mmove moves or renames an existing MS-DOS file or subdi
rectory. Unlike the MS-DOS version of MOVE, mmove is able
to move subdirectories. Files or directories can only be
moved within one filesystem. Data cannot be moved from Dos
to Unix or vice-versa. If you omit the drive letter from
the target file or directory, the same letter as for the
source is assumed. If you omit the drive letter from all
parameters, drive a: is assumed by default.

Viewing the texi doc
This manpage has been automatically generated from
mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is
only approximative, and some items, such as crossrefer
ences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation
process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate repre
sentation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all infor
mation has been translated into the manpage version. Thus
I strongly advise you to use the original texinfo doc.
See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view
the texinfo doc.
* To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc,
run the following commands:
./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi
* To generate a html copy, run:
./configure; make html
`http://mtools.linux.lu' and also at:
`http://www.tux.org/pub/knaff/mtools'
* To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs'
info mode), run:
./configure; make info
The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html.
Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult
to read due to the quoting conventions used in info.
