Help needed with scripting - Renaming of file from within allegro

Hi,
Is it posible to have Allegro script rename a file from a specified directory?
I have a recorded script that performs several processing.
Part of it is to plot a few artwork in pdf format (default printer being a pdf printer).
What I want to do is to pause after each plotting, rename the output file and then resume with the next artwork to plot.
Is this posible? If yes, could you please help explain to me on how to do this?

Thanking you in advance.

Regards,

Hello Vijay Anandh,

You can use the function renameFile( "old file name with path" "new file name with path" )
