directory

verbose = no

This routine moves the specified files to the named directory. If a subdirectory and a logical directory both exist with the same name as the destination directory, the subdirectory is used.

1. Move all files whose names start with `im' and end with `ab' to the directory `dir'. Since "verbose" defaults to "no", do the work silently.

cl> movefiles im*ab dir

2. Move all files in the current directory into the directory one level up.

cl> move * ..
