mmove(1)		     General Commands Manual			mmove(1)

Name
     mmove - move or rename an MSDOS file or subdirectory

Note of warning
     This  manpage  has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo docu-
     mentation, and may not be entirely accurate or complete.  See  the  end  of
     this man page for details.

Description
     The mmove command is used to move or rename an existing MS-DOS file or sub-
     directory.
     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 subdirectory. Unlike the
     MS-DOS version of MOVE, mmove is able to move subdirectories.  Files or di-
     rectories can only be moved within one file system. Data  cannot  be  moved
     from  MS-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  de-
     fault.

Viewing the texi doc
     This  manpage  has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo docu-
     mentation. However, this process is only  approximative,  and  some  items,
     such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation
     process.	Indeed,  these	items  have no appropriate representation in the
     manpage format.  Moreover, not all information 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

     A premade html can  be  found  at	`http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/man-
     ual/mtools.html'

     *	    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 con-
     ventions used in info.
