Hello,
 
 
 
   There seems to be a 'mv' bug where it prefers the -i to follow the --reply=no option switch.My system is RedHat Linux ver 9.0.
 
   e.g.,
 
   mv -vi --reply=no f1 f2      # will incorrectly write over f2
 
   however,
 
   mv -v --reply=no -i f1 f2    # will correctly NOT write over f2
 
   This does not seem to be a bug if the target is a directory name.
 
 
Thanks,
Gary
