Mmove
=====

   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
filesystem. Data cannot be moved from 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.
