Multiple MoVe...

MMV(1)                                                                                                                    MMV(1)

NAME
       mmv - move/copy/append/link multiple files by wildcard patterns

SYNOPSIS
       mmv [-m|x|r|c|o|a|l|s] [-h] [-d|p] [-g|t] [-v|n] [--] [from to]

DESCRIPTION
       Mmv moves (or copies, appends, or links, as specified) each source file matching a from pattern to the target name speci-
       fied by the to pattern.  This multiple action is performed safely, i.e. without any unexpected deletion of files  due  to
       collisions  of  target names with existing filenames or with other target names.  Furthermore, before doing anything, mmv
       attempts to detect any errors that would result from the entire set of actions specified and gives the user the choice of
       either proceeding by avoiding the offending parts or aborting.  mmv does support large files (LFS) but it does *NOT* sup-
       port sparse files (i.e. it explodes them).
