       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 move or rename 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 subdirectory. Unlike the MS-DOS  version
       of  MOVE,  mmove  is  able to move subdirectories.  Files or directories 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
       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  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/manual/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 conventions used in info.
