If you are using pawn (for instance in san andreas multiplayer) and want to rename a file, you'll not find a method like frename.
You can either use my
dutils (pawn only solution) or a plugin (like Yless' YSF) to add frename to your functions.
If you want to make a plain pawn solution, and don't want to use dutils, here is how I made it.
There are two steps.
First you'll need fcopy (copies the file):
ohnd=fopen(oldname,io_read);
nhnd=fopen(newname,io_write);
new buf2[1];
new i;
for (i=flength(ohnd);i>0;i--) {
fputchar(nhnd, fgetchar(ohnd, buf2[0],false),false);
}
fclose(ohnd);
fclose(nhnd);
And then you'll need to remove the old file.
fremove(oldname);
Remember, that on linux those methods will not work (since fputchar is bugged on linux). You need to use the pawnonly frenametextfile and fcopytextfile from
dutils for that.
