NAME
     mvdir - move a directory

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sbin/mvdir dirname  name

DESCRIPTION
     mvdir moves directories within a file system.  dirname must
     be a directory.  If name does not exist, it will be created
     as a directory.  If name does exist, and is a directory,
     dirname will be created as name/dirname. dirname and name
     may not be on the same path; that is, one may not be subor-
     dinate to the other.  For example:

             mvdir x/y x/z

     is legal, but

             mvdir x/y x/y/z

     is not.

SEE ALSO
     mkdir(1), mv(1) in the User's Reference Manual.

WARNINGS
     Only the super-user can use mvdir.
