Subject: vidir: -i switch to interactively ask about overwriting files

Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2011 10:53:56 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: moreutils
Version: 0.44
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/vidir

It would be nice if vidir grew a switch like mv has: -i causes it to
ask if a file would be overwritten.

Thanks,
