All csh wildcards ('*', '?', '['...']', and '~') are 1.6 +supported. This multiple action is performed safely, i.e. without any 1.7 +unexpected deletion of files due to collisions of target names with existing 1.8 +filenames or with other target names. Furthermore, before doing anything, mmv 1.9 +attempts to detect any errors that would result from the entire set of actions 1.10 +specified and gives the user the choice of either aborting before beginning, or 1.11 +proceeding by avoiding the offending parts.
