I am looking for a shareware or public domain MV command for DOS that is preferably with source code (or has source that can be obtained via registering). I've looked at MV.DOC/MV.C at wuarchive (mirrors, msdos, dirutls) but this one is REAL hardware dependent (the author mentions "test this on a floppy first....then run chkdsk the first few times you use it"). The FSF Gnuish MV won't allow me to do this: "mv *.c *.d". All in all, I want something that will allow me to all of the following and nothing more: C:/> mv tmp.c tmp.d // Straight one to one correspondence...easy C:/> mv tmp.c usr/ // Move into directory...easy C:/> mv *.c *.d // Rename files with wild cards...not as easy C:/> mv *.c F:*.c // Rename w/wild cards across drives...not as easy C:/> mv tmp.c f: // Rename file across drive, no name specified In other words, I want something that acts like MV and RENAME all rolled up in one, and I don't want to reinvent the wheel for the 499993933rd time! I don't care if it renames directories (I use RENDIR for that).
