If _f_i_l_e_2 has a mode which forbids writing, _m_v prints<br /> the mode (see _c_h_m_o_d(2)) and reads the standard input to<br /> obtain a line; if the line begins with y, the move takes<br /> place; if not, _m_v exits.<br /> <br /> In the second form, one or more _f_i_l_e_s are moved to the<br /> _d_i_r_e_c_t_o_r_y with their original file-names.<br /> <br /> _M_v refuses to move a file onto itself.<br /> <br /> == SEE ALSO ==<br /> [[32v 1m cp|cp(1)]], [[32v 2m chmod|chmod(2)]]<br /> <br /> == BUGS ==<br /> If _f_i_l_e_1 and _f_i_l_e_2 lie on different file systems, _m_v must<br /> copy the file and delete the original. In this case the<br /> owner name becomes that of the copying process and any link-<br /> ing relationship with other files is lost.<br /> <br /> Directories may only be moved within the same parent direc-<br /> tory.<br /> <br /> _M_v should take -f flag, like _r_m, to suppress the question if<br /> the target exists and is not writable.<br /> <br /> [[Category:32v man section 1]]</div>
