NAME

ttmv − move or rename files and inform the ToolTalk service

SYNOPSIS

ttmv [−fL] pathname1 pathname2

ttmv [−fL] pathname1... directory

ttmv −h | −v

OPTIONS

The following options are available:

−fForce. Do not report any errors, and pass the −f option to mv(1). 

−hWrite a help message for invoking ttmv and then exit. 

−LMove the ToolTalk objects of the files, but do not invoke mv(1) to move the actual files. 

−vWrite the version number of ttmv and then exit. 

The −i option to cp(1) is not supported. 

OPERANDS

The following operands are supported:

pathname1
A pathname of a file to be moved.

pathname2
A pathname of an existing or nonexisting file, used for the output when a single file is moved.

directory
A pathname of a directory to contain the moved files.

DESCRIPTION

The ttmv utility invokes mv(1) to move files and directories around in the file system and informs ToolTalk about its actions so that the ToolTalk objects associated with those files and directories can also be moved. 

The ttmv utility moves the ToolTalk objects before it moves the files and does not check whether the file-moving operation will succeed before performing the object-moving operation.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

The following environment variables affect the execution of ttmv:

LC_ALL
If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the other internationalization variables.

LC_MESSAGES
Determine the locale that is used to affect the format and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error and informative messages written to standard output.

NLSPATH
Determine the location of message catalogues for the processing of LC_MESSAGES. 

EXIT STATUS

The following exit values are returned:

0All files and ToolTalk objects were moved successfully. 

>0An error occurred or the invoked mv(1) command exited with a non-zero value.
