VMS Help EXCHANGE, RENAME, Parameters *Conan The Librarian |
input-file-spec
Specifies the names of one or more files whose specifications are
to be changed.
You can use wildcard characters in the file name and file type
specification; if you do, all files that satisfy the specified
fields are renamed.
output-file-spec
Provides the new file specification to be applied to the input
file. The RENAME command uses the file name and file type of the
input file specification to provide defaults for nonspecified
fields in the output file.
You can specify an asterisk (*) in place of the file name
or file type of the output file; the RENAME command uses the
corresponding field in the input file specification to name the
output file. Specifying wildcard characters in corresponding
fields of the input and output file specifications results in
multiple rename operations.
You can omit the device name from the output specification.
EXCHANGE uses the device name specified for the input, since
it is not possible to rename a file from one device to another.
