Name¶
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 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

- 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.
