NAME

App::mvr - like mv, but clever

VERSION

version 0.005

FUNCTIONS

mvr

Rename SOURCE to DEST, or move SOURCE(S) to DIRECTORY.

mvr( source => 'file.txt', dest => '~/Documents' );         # move file.txt into ~/Documents
mvr( source => 'file.txt', dest => '~/Documents/notes.txt );# move to specified name
mvr( source => [map "$_.txt", qw/a b c/], dest => '~' );    # move multiple files into ~/

Parameters are key-value pairs:

source

An arrayref of source files, or a single scalar if you have only one file.

dest

The target pathname. If this is a directory, file(s) will be moved into it - or an exception will be raised if the directory doesn't exist.

deduplicate

Check if files are the same whenever there is a name conflict. If they are the same, then just remove the source file instead of adding another copy to the destination.

This function is not exported by default.
