"Great," I thought, "I'll finally have a decent mv command for amy!" Read the docs; it's a cleverly designed multi-functional program. The docs stated that if you managed to get it to guru, let Mr. Hoogerbeets (sp?) know. Well, the first time I ran the sucker, I tried to do this: mv mv bin: where 'mv' is in the current directory on dh2:, and bin: is assign'd to be dh0:bin. Sure enough, on the first and subsequent tries, I got the guru. Arrggh!! Mr. Hoogerbeets, I know you're out there somewhere; I've seen your name on the net before. Have you fixed this bug? Is there a later version?? I really don't have time to fix the code myself! This program is too cool to be useless... Especially since the AmigaDOS rename program is such a joke... Sigh. +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | Jeff Bevis | "But I don't like spam!" | | bevis@en.ecn.purdue.edu | Give me Amiga or nothing at all. | +--------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+
