Moving a file to a different directory
Moving a file to a different directory |
|
Previously, we saw that the mv command can be used to
change the name of a file.
The mv command can also be used to move a file from
one directory to another. For example, this command would move
file ~/potatoes to
directory /u/trixie/typos:
% mv ~/potatoes /u/trixie/typos
After the execution of this command, the pathname of the file
should be /u/trixie/typos/potatoes.
