Thanks for the reply, Corona688. tar might be a good option then. Basically, I'm trying to write a script that takes all the directories in my current directory and put them in a subdirectory (or tar ball, I guess). So, I use
Code:
mv */ archive/

but get the warning
Code:
mv: cannot move `archive/' to a subdirectory of itself, `archive/archive'

I guess an alternative is just to suppress that output (i.e., redirect to /dev/null)?
