Este script deve fazer o truque. Ele também pode manipular vários arquivos / diretórios de origem. Use-o da mesma maneira que você usaria mv - mvsim source... dest . Note que ele não presta atenção a opções, nem as filtra (apenas as trata como nomes de arquivos) e pode não funcionar bem com links simbólicos.

Alguns exemplos:
$ ls
dir1 dir2 file1 file2 file3 mvsim
$ ./mvsim file1 file2
Renames file file1 to file2, replacing file file2
$ ./mvsim file1 newfile
Renames file file1 to newfile
$ ./mvsim file1 dir1
Moves file file1 into the directory dir1
$ ./mvsim file1 file2 file3 dir1
Moves...
The file file1...
And the file file2...
And the file file3...
...Into the directory dir1
$ ./mvsim file1 file2 dir1 dir2
Moves...
The file file1...
And the file file2...
And the directory dir1 (and anything inside it)...
...Into the directory dir2
$ ./mvsim file1 file2 file3 # error - file3 isn't a directory
Error: file3 is not a directory; mv cannot merge multiple files into one.
$ ./mvsim -f -i file1 dir1 # options aren't parsed or filtered out
Error: -f does not exist.
