πŸ’… MV(nged) β€” the rename-your-stuff glow-up

Okay bestie, welcome to the MV(nged) page from the BRL-CAD User Commands era β€” it's short, it's sweet, and it does exactly one thing. Let's get into it ✨


πŸŽ€ NAME

mv β€” changes the name of old_name to new_name. That's it. That's the whole job. Iconic, honestly. πŸ‘‘


✨ SYNOPSIS

mv {old_name new_name}

🌸 DESCRIPTION

So here's the vibe: mv changes the name of old_name to new_name. Simple. Clean. A little makeover for your object. πŸ’–

⚠️ But listen β€” and this is the important part, so don't scroll past it β€” it does not change any references to old_name that may appear in other combinations in the database. So those references just sit there, still calling your object by its old name like they didn't get the memo. πŸ™ˆ

If you want the full send β€” renaming an object everywhere β€” that's the mvall command. mvall is the one that changes an object's name everywhere, no cap. πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ EXAMPLES

The example shows the use of the mv command to change an object's old_name to a new_name. Fr fr, that's what it's for.

Example 1. Change an object's name.

mged>mv shapea shapeb

Changes the name of shapea to shapeb. Slay. πŸ’…βœ¨
