<h3>Name</h3>
mv - rename or move files
<h3>Synopsis</h3>
/bin/mv <em>oldname</em> <em>newname</em>
<h3>Description</h3>
mv renames the filesystem object specified by <em>oldname</em> so that
it is subsequently named <em>newname</em>. Both files and directories
can be renamed or moved into other parts of the filesystem tree.
However, devices may not be renamed and filesystem objects may not be
moved across filesystems.
<p>
mv accepts no options.
<h3>Requirements</h3>
mv uses the following system calls:
<ul>
<li> <A HREF=../syscall/rename.html>rename</A>
<li> <A HREF=../syscall/write.html>write</A>
<li> <A HREF=../syscall/_exit.html>_exit</A>
</ul>
mv should function properly once the file system assignment is
completed.
