ttmv -- move or rename files and inform the ToolTalk service
ttmv
[-fL] [pathname1] [pathname2]
ttmv [-fL] [pathname] [.!.!.] [directory]
ttmv [-h] [-v]
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.
The following
options are available:
- -f
- Force. Do not report any errors, and pass the -f
option to mv(1)
.
- -h
- Write a help message for invoking ttmv and then exit.
- -L
- Move
the ToolTalk objects of the files, but do not invoke mv(1)
to move the
actual files.
- -v
- Write the version number of ttmv and then exit.
The -i option
to cp(1)
is not supported.
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.
Not used.
The input files specified as operands can be of any file type.
The following environment variables affect the execution of ttmv:
- LANG
- Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that
are unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from
the implementation-specific default locale will be used. If any of the internationalization
variables contains an invalid setting, the utility behaves as if none of
the variables had been defined.
- 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.
None.
The ttmv
utility takes the standard action for all signals.
When the -h option
is used, ttmv writes to standard output a help message in an unspecified
format.
When the -v option is used, ttmv writes to standard output a version
number in an unspecified format.
Used only for diagnostic messages.
The output files can be of any type.
None.
The following exit values are returned:
- 0
- All files and ToolTalk
objects were moved successfully.
- >0
- An error occurred or the invoked mv(1)
command exited with a non-zero value.
Default.
- /mountpoint/TT_DB
- The
directory used as a database for the ToolTalk objects of files in the file
system mounted at /mountpoint.
None.
None.
