Renaming a File
Give a file a different name.
REN (short for RENAME) gives a file a new name in the same folder. Old name first, new name second. Nothing was printed, which (as usual) means it worked.
Unlike bash, MS-DOS has a separate command for this, because its COPY and MOVE do not do renaming. Bash gets away with one command, mv, for both jobs; DOS keeps them apart.
