NAME
mvdb - move a FirstBase database to a new file name
SYNOPSIS
mvdb
source_database destination_database
DESCRIPTION
Mvdb
is a simple shell script that moves a database and all
necessary support files to a new destination. The move is done
interactively using the -i option of mv(1).
Mvdb will ask permission to destroy existing files.
Formally, three files are moved: the database itself, the database
dictionary, and the database record map. The source files are actually
just renamed -- no copying takes place.
FILES
-
*.cdb
-
FirstBase database.
-
*.ddict
-
FirstBase database dictionary.
-
*.map
-
record map of FirstBase database.
