Hi, i need help.i am a quite new user of fortran. I would like to
rename a file (used as input file) and move it to another directory.
Which command can I use?
thanks

Fortran is not really suited for this type of tasks.
What you can do is one of the following:

1. Use the "system" subroutine. It is a common extension to
the standard. You can use it to run system commands:

character*100 command
write( command, '(4a)' ) 'copy ', file1, ' ', file2
call system(command)

call system("copy " // trim(file1) // " " // trim(file2))

is more concise and more general, since it will work even if the file
names are long

.
