NAME

rename − Rename or delete a command

SYNOPSIS

rename oldName newName _________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

Rename the command that used to be called oldName so that it is now called newName. If newName is an empty string then oldName is deleted. oldName and newName may include namespace qualifiers (names of containing namespaces). If a command is renamed into a different namespace, future invocations of it will execute in the new namespace. The rename command returns an empty string as result.
