help with xargs and mv
...when I do this I get the error: mv: when moving multiple files, last argument must be a directory Try `mv --help' for more information. There is obviously something about xargs that I do not understand. In my imagination I see this xargs construction expanding to this: mv /var/spool/mqueue/*messageid1 /var/spool/mqueue/offline mv /var/spool/mqueue/*messageid2 /var/spool/mqueue/offline . . . mv /var/spool/mqueue/*messageidn /var/spool/mqueue/offline so that the qf and df files for each message are moved into the subdirectory offline. But this is obviously incorrect. Can anyone here point out...
