file re-naming?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The rename command is mv. The cyntax is: mv source file destination file.
If you use rm, you can kiss your rmed file good-bye, unless you had a backup.
If you want to learn more, I would recommend:
"man mv"
and
"man rm"
