I was trying to do something involving renaming files the other day and
I wrote:
system("rename $originalname $newname");
and got an error. I figured out in the end I was getting confused --
perl has a rename function and if I want to do the system way, I need
"mv" instead.
But when I do "man rename" I get a manpage. So how come in Panther I
don't have a system rename command but I do have a manpage for it?
Supplementary question. If you were moving, copying and renaming files,
would you use File::Copy instead of cp and mv?
