NAME

mvidx - move a FirstBase index to a new file name

SYNOPSIS

mvidx source_index destination_index

DESCRIPTION

Mvidx is a simple shell script that moves a FirstBase index and all necessary support files to a new destination. The move is done interactively using the -i option of mv(1). Mvidx will ask permission to destroy existing files.

Formally, three files are moved: the index itself, the index dictionary, and the index header file. The source files are actually just renamed -- no copying takes place.

FILES

*.idx
FirstBase index.

*.idict
FirstBase index header file.

*.idicti
FirstBase index dictionary.

SEE ALSO

mv(1), firstbase(5), dictionaries(5), cpidx(8), rmidx(8)
