///1RENAME
Syntax:
RENAME {new-filespec=old-filespec}
Explanation:
RENAME lets you change the name of a file in the directory of a
disk. To change several filenames in one command use the * or ?
wildcards in the file specifications. The RENAME command can be
abbreviated REN. REN prompts you for input.
///2Examples
A>RENAME NEWFILE.BAS=OLDFILE.BAS
The file OLDFILE.BAS changes to NEWFILE.BAS on drive A.
A>RENAME
The system prompts for the filespecs:
Enter New Name:X.PRN
Enter Old Name:Y.PRN
Y .PRN=X .PRN
A>
File X.PRN is renamed to Y.PRN on drive A.
B>REN A:PRINTS.NEW = PRINCE.NEW
The file PRINCE.NEW on drive A changes to PRINTS.NEW on
drive A.
A>RENAME S*.TEX=A*.TEX
The above command renames all the files matching
A*.TEX to files with filenames S*.TEX.
A>REN B:NEWLIST=B:OLDLIST
The file OLDLIST changes to NEWLIST on drive B. Since the
second drive specifier, B: is implied by the first one, it
is unnecessary in this example. The command line above has
the same effect as the following:
A>REN B:NEWLIST=OLDLIST
or
A>REN NEWLIST=B:OLDLIST
