Hi Jim, The info documentation of mv is inconsistent with its behaviour, as described in http://bugs.debian.org/343652 : *** [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/t$ mkdir foo ; touch foo/a *** [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/t$ ln -s foo bar *** [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/t$ mv bar/ zork mv: cannot move `bar/' to `zork': Not a directory
While the mv info page says: _Warning_: If you try to move a symlink that points to a directory, and you specify the symlink with a trailing slash, then `mv' doesn't move the symlink but instead moves the directory referenced by the symlink. Is it a documentation bug, or an mv bug? -- | Lucas Nussbaum | [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
