SWAPNAME Command
----------------

Purpose: To change the names of two disk files to that
of the other file.

Format: SWAPNAME [d:][path]filename.ext [d:][path][filename.ext

Remarks: The drive and path names are optional. If omitted, the
current drive and path name is used.

File names must be supplied for both files. The files
may be on different drives and/or in different paths.

If any errors are encountered, such as invalid file names,
both files are restored to their original names, and an
error message is issued. The message contains a return
code from the RENAME function. Refer to the DOS manual
for its meaning.

SAVE on drive A: to NEW.DAT in subdirectory WORK on
drive B:

drive A, and one called OLD.DAT in directory WORK on drive B.
