Preferably in a platform neutral manner, but it must definitely work on
windows.
Where 'old' and 'new' are fully qualified directory names:
- File.move(old, new) results in:
C:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/ftools.rb:62:in `readlink': The readlink() function is
unimplemented on this machine (NotImplementedError)
from C:/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/ftools.rb:62:in `move'
- system("move #{old} #{new}") - just returns false and does nothing
- I expected Dir to have a move method, but couldn't find it.
Obviously I could iterate through the files and move them one at time, but
there must be a simpler way...
