I think I've found a "mv" command bug (in Ubuntu 10.04's terminal).
When I write " mv [directory name] -/[directory name]", it doesn't move
the first directory, she disappears!
I don't know why, I've tried a lot of times following exactly the
instructions of the Ubuntu's help service.
Good evening

No worries!  I am happy that you have resolved your problem.  And so I
am going to close the bug ticket with this message.
