rename -- change name of file, directory, or volume syntax: rename ex: rename this that rename /blank /mydisk rename letter= ltr.= Changes the name of a file, directory, or volume. Wildcards are allowed, as in the third example. A wildcard in the second pathname expands to the same text the wildcard in the first pathname is matching. The third example changes the names of files beginning with "letter" to begin with "ltr." instead. If you change the name of an AppleWorks file (filetypes AWP, ADB, and ASP) from Davex, you may find the capitalization to be strange. This is because AppleWorks stores the capitalization information in the file's Auxiliary type, which is not affected by this command. Use Apple-N while editing the file in Appleworks to fix the capitalization.
