How to Use the MV Utility   240 

The options for MV are: 

-i:

 ask for confirmation before overwriting each destination file. 

-f:

 move the file, don't ask for confirmation even if it will overwrite a file marked 

Read-Only. 

-r:

 recursively move all of the files and subdirectories specified by the filename, 

including the named directory. 

-v:

 print out status as the mv progresses. 

-?

: Display program description. 

Note: If the environment variable MV exists, its value is used to establish default 
options. 

Note: You can override an option that was specified in the environment variable by 
following the option with a minus '-' sign. For example, to turn off the -i option, 

specify -i-. 

Note: The order of options f and i is significant: the one specified last determines 

whether a confirmation is requested. 

Note: If the environment variable MV exists, its value is used to establish default 

options.
