1- Syntax/Options 2- Notes
MOVE moves files from one area to another on the same drive. It permits
wildcard filename declarations and also directory DU and DIR forms. Only one
byte is changed in the directory storage area (track 2 of the diskette) for
each file moved, so operation is quicker than disk-to-disk copying. MOVE can
be handy even if PUBLIC directories are available. Vs 2.0 by Dennis Wright.

a. Version 2.2 updates (12/04/89):
- Bug fixed in handling of large files.

and does only one write per directory sector per file instead of
possibly four.
- Command line parsing code cleaned up.
- Special handling for stand-alone user numbers removed.
- Code fixed to work with extended environment.
- Code shortened in several places.
- Call to FRESET added just before deleting a file in the destination
area to avoid problems when running under DRI BDOS.
- Conditional assembly added for Type 4.
