This is mmv, a program to move/copy/append/link multiple files
|
||
|
|
according to a set of wildcard patterns. The wildcard matches
|
||
|
|
can be reused in forming the target names. You can i.e. move
|
||
|
|
all *.c.or? files to or?.new.*.c by saying 'mmv "*.c.or?" or=2.new.=1.c'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The multiple action is performed safely, i.e. without any unexpected
|
||
|
|
deletion of files due to collisions of target names with existing
|
||
|
|
filenames or with other target names. Furthermore, before doing
|
||
|
|
anything, mmv attempts to detect any errors that would result from the
|
||
|
|
entire set of actions specified and gives the user the choice of
|
||
|
|
either aborting before beginning, or proceeding by avoiding the
|
||
|
|
offending parts.
