I have written a mv command for PC-DOS. It has only been tested for DOS 3.1
but it probably works on 3.0. I doubt it works on 1.x or 2.x. I have used
it in batch files and normal moving stuff around on my hard disk for a couple
weeks without problems, but it hasn't undergone widespread use type testing.
If you're interested in trying it out send me mail.
Mv renames files and directories and moves files to be under a different
directory without copying and erasing them. It DOES do wildcard expansion.
It will not erase the destination file if it already exists. The desination
file or directory must be completely specified, ie 'mv dir1\name1 name2' will
move file 'name1' to the current directory as well as renaming it.
I'm also interested in getting any suggested enhancements to it.
