Changes
the
name of the file specified by pathname to filename.
Parameters
pathname
is
the
file to be renamed.
filename is
the
new name
for
the
file.
Notes
and
Suggestions
• If you include a wild card
in
the filename, MS-DOS leaves
the
corresponding characters as they were. For example,
if
you
type
the
following:
ren
newfile
old????
I
ENTER
J
MS-DOS replaces
the
? wild cards
with
the characters
that
occupied
the
same position
in
the original name. Newfile is
changed to .oldfile.
• If you also include a wild card in the pathname, MS-DOS
renames all files
in
the specified directory
that
match
the
pathname. For example,
if
you type
the
following:
RENAME
*.19t
*.prn
I
ENTER
I
MS-DOS changes only the extension of all .lst files
that
are
in
the
current
directory. The new extension is .prn. The file Sue-
file.lst,
for
example, becomes Suefile.prn.
