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.
