SYNOPSIS
ecaccess-file-move -version|-help|-manual

file-copy ... -erase).
The source-ecaccess-file and target-ecaccess-file are in the form [domain:][/user-id/]path. Please read the "Shell commands -> File
Management" section of the "ecaccess" guide for more information on the ECaccess File System.
ARGUMENTS

The source ECaccess File name.
target-ecaccess-file
The target ECaccess File name.
OPTIONS

-help Print a brief help message and exits.
-manual Prints the manual page and exits.
-debug Display the SOAP messages exchanged.

ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt ec:test2.txt

ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt home:test2.txt
Copy the test1.txt file from the ECFS directory of the authenticated user to the test2.txt file in the $HOME directory of the authenticated
