25 The \fR\&\f(CWmmove\fR command is used to moves or renames an existing MS-DOS

34 \&\fR\&\f(CWMmove\fR moves or renames an existing MS-DOS file or
35 subdirectory. Unlike the MS-DOS version of \fR\&\f(CWMOVE\fR, \fR\&\f(CWmmove\fR is
36 able to move subdirectories. Files or directories can only be moved
37 within one filesystem. Data cannot be moved from Dos to Unix or
38 vice-versa. If you omit the drive letter from the target file or
39 directory, the same letter as for the source is assumed. If you omit
40 the drive letter from all parameters, drive a: is assumed by default.
44 .SH Viewing\ the\ texi\ doc
45 This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo
46 documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
47 items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this
48 translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate
49 representation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all information has
50 been translated into the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to
51 use the original texinfo doc. See the end of this manpage for
52 instructions how to view the texinfo doc.
55 To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following
61 ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi
70 To generate a html copy, run:
75 ./configure; make html
81 \&\fRA premade html can be found at
82 \&\fR\&\f(CW\(ifhttp://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/manual/mtools.html\(is\fR
85 To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:
90 ./configure; make info
98 The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in
99 the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
100 quoting conventions used in info.
