<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hello,<br>
<br>
I have very huge number of files in one directory that I wish to move to some
other folder and<br>
the standard "mv" just screames<br>
<br>
crash-06:~/DataSet$ mv file* SFiles<br>
bash: /bin/mv: Argument list too long<br>
<br>
<br>
Can someone suggest what is may be a good solution. of course picking one
by one is ruled out.<br>
