  NAME

    mvdir - Moves a directory

  SYNOPSIS

    /etc/mvdir dirname name

  DESCRIPTION

    The mvdir command moves directories within a file system.  The dirname
    must be a directory.  If name does not exist, it will be created as a
    directory.  If name does exist, dirname will be created as name/dirname.
    The dirname and name arguments may not be on the same path; that is, one
    may not be subordinate to the other.  For example,

    mvdir x/y x/z

    is legal, but

    mvdir x/y x/y/z

    is not.

  EXAMPLES

    mvdir $home/dir1 $home/dir2

  CAUTIONS

    Only the superuser can use mvdir.

  DIAGNOSTICS

    mvdir: Cannot move!

  EXIT VALUES

    The mvdir command exits with a value of 0 if successful and a value of 1
    or 2 if an error occurs.
