[comp.sys.amiga] mv/cp/rm

Hello!  I have Edwin Hoogerbeets excellent mv/cp/rm v1.1 utility,
but I tend not to use it because I cannot close a window after
it has been used in that window.  I am using Ashell currently,
but I really would like to be able to use this utility.
  With conman and Ashell, it says "Shell 6 ending" or whatever but
doesn't close the window.  If I call up a new shell, it is called
Shell 6 so the system must think the first shell closed, I just can't
get rid of the window.
  I like mv because it has the -i option to prevent overwriting even
when moving/copying across devices.  Is there another utility that does
this?  Hmmm... this turned out to be 2 questions in one!  Thanks, one and all.

That's because didn't close an open file on the console. 1.2 fixed that.

I have the 1.2 uuencoded I can post or mail it directly to you.
