What are some ways I can manipulate a file in shell? mv mv fred wilma This moves fred to a file named wilma. This is the Unix way of renaming a file. mv fred flintstones/fred This moves fred to a file named fred in the subdirectory flintstones. This example could have been written mv fred flintstones/ as well, and the filename fred would have been retained in the new directory. After executing this command, there will no longer be a fred file in the current directory. cp cp fred wilma This copies fred to a file named wilma. cp fred flintstones/fred This copies fred to a file named fred in the subdirectory flintstones. rm rm flintstones This removes a file named flintstones. rm -rf flintstones This removes a directory named flintstones. The -r removes the directory, the -f forces it to remove files without asking you before it deletes each one. Back to category List all categories |
