CHNAME V1.00

A Freeware File Renaming/Moving Utility

  Chname is a renaming utility which can rename files, rename directories,
and move files (destination on small logical drive)  This program alleviates
the need to xcopy a directory to another one and then delete the old one
when you wish to rename it.





CHNAME's syntax is:      CHNAME filespec               where...

	  filespec	  is any legal file OR directory spec, which may
			  include drive information, full or partial
                         path information.  File specs may also contain
                         wildcards



EXAMPLES:

CHNAME dir1 mydir              Rename directory dir1 as mydir
CHNAME foo.exe foo3.exe        Renames foo.exe as foo3.exe
CHNAME foo.exe \foo3.exe       Renames foo.exe as foo3.exe AND moves it to 
                               the root directory
CHANME \a\foo.exe \b\foo.exe   Moves foo.exe from subdir a to subdir b
CHNAME foo.* foo3.*            Renames all files with base name foo as foo3,
                               keeping the same extensions
