The corrected mv command with picnix3 still has a
small problem:  If you should happen to request a
move of a file to a non-existent directory, it
"moves" it and deletes it from the source
directory---all silently.  

I did this accidentally, misspelling the name of
an existent directory.  The file disappeared.

BTW, the MKS mv command does the same trick.
