see rename and combine with cp. Basically, if you want to
move to a different directory, type "mv <filename>
<path/to/filename>" This should work just fine.

And it won't. :-) mv works for BOTH "rename" and "move" (if
you want, you can put in an alias in your .bashrc for "ren"
to "mv" and that would allow you to use the old "dos"
command "ren" <G>)
