Changing the Name of a File or Directory
[F3] RENAME
This lets you rename the selected file/directory selected on the current drive.
You can rename files using up to eight alphabetic and numeric characters. Files having the same name cannot be saved in the
same directory.
Files are named according to MS-DOS naming conventions. If the file name contains spaces and other characters unrecog-
nized in MS-DOS, these characters will automatically be replaced by “_” (underscore) characters when saving.
