Just discovered a nasty bug in the mv command. I had a file that had several mv commands in it: mv name1 name2 mv name3 name4 ... The file was a DOS/Windows file with CR characters in it. I ran the file with BASH and it did the renames, but .... All the new names had the CR character appended to the end of the name. MV should ignore CR and any other invisible character. This is a serious bug. -- Marc Perkel Voice: 417-866-1222 Computer Tyme Software Lab Fax: 760-838-8023 309 North Jefferson, Suite 220 Reply: "mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Springfield, MO. 65806 USA Web Site: "http://www.ctyme.com"
