mmv * #1.sql
for pre-emptive purposes You'll need to escape the special characters, so the above would be mmv \* \#1.sql

mmv \* \#1.sql
mmv? or mv landie@pepino:~/EVANGEL/upload/test > mv * #1.sql mv: when moving multiple files, last argument must be a directory Try `mv --help' for more information. landie@pepino:~/EVANGEL/upload/test >

I wrote mmv and I meant mmv mmv \* \#1.sql If you don't have it, install it from the SuSE cds. The package is called mmv

I can't help but interject the easy method using "mc". Just highlight all the files, hit F6, enter *.sql It might be easier to remember than the obscure mmv syntax. :-) -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
