rename a file (used as input file) and move it to another directory.
Which command can I use?
thanks

If you are indeed a *user* rather than a *programmer*, you may find it simpler to separate the math from the housekeeping, and call both your fortran code and the system utilities from a makefile, a shell script, or one of the many scripting languages.

Perhaps this was too terse for a novice, so I'll elaborate. Fortran is easy if you stick to math, but otherwise things can get quite complicated. So for simplicity do the math in fortran, try to find some simple high-level tool for anything else, and glue everything together in a script. I usually do this with an extra target or two in the same makefile that builds the fortran executable. Learning to use makefiles (and to build libraries) is worth the hassle even for an occasion/casual *user*.
