- This whole things seems to suck! Yeah, why do you have to make
- things complicated?
-
- First of all, you can get information about the rename command
- by typing this in your CLI prompt: rename ?
-
- Second, some people seem to miss the point of this! The original
- question would be how to move files in a different folder using
- the AMigaDOS rename command.
- Simply, make sure you ONLY rename in the same device (ex. RAM:)
- with something like:
- rename ram:dummy_stupid.file ram:crap/dumped/smarter.file
- while the directories exist in your ram as ram:crap/dumbped to
- be a valid path you want to move the file into.
