4.22 Mren
=========
The `mren' command is used to rename or move an existing MS-DOS file or
subdirectory. Its syntax is:
`mren' [`-voOsSrRA'] SOURCEFILE TARGETFILE
`Mren' renames an existing file on an MS-DOS file system.
In verbose mode, `Mren' displays the new filename if the name
supplied is invalid.
If the first syntax is used (only one source file), and if the target
name doesn't contain any slashes or colons, the file (or subdirectory)
is renamed in the same directory, instead of being moved to the current
`mcd' directory as would be the case with `mmove'. Unlike the MS-DOS
version of `REN', `mren' can be used to rename directories.
