##Description
File.Copy renames a file or directory named by the srcPathName parameter to the destName parameter. The destName parameter must be a name only. In other words File.Rename can't move a file between different directories.
##Details
If the File.Rename call fails, then Error.Last will return a non-zero value indicating the reason for the failure. Error.LastMsg will return a string which contains the textual version of the error.
##Example
This program renames the file "/usr/west/example" to "testcase"
File.Rename ("/usr/west/example", "testcase")
if Error.Last = eNoError then
put "File renamed"
else
put "Did not rename the file."
put "Error: ", Error.LastMsg
end if
##Execute
An example program is available that creates a file in the current directory, renames it to a different name using File.Rename, checks the existence of both files using File.Exists and then deletes the file using File.Delete.
##Status
Exported qualified.
This means that you can only call the function by calling File.Rename, not by calling Rename.
