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.
