Renames a file or folder.

8: Silent overwrite on name collision.

Is this a bug?

 new("TestFolder", "dir"); 
 new("TestFolder2", "dir");
 selectitems "TestFolder2"; wait '1000';
 renameitem("TestFolder", , 8);

Renaming to non-existing name works:

 new("TestFolder", "dir"); 
 new("TestFolder2", "dir");
 selectitems "TestFolder2"; wait '1000';
 renameitem("TestFolder3", , 8);

This is probably not the thing to do with renaming, I'll go moveto()

moveto $newFolder, "$folder\*",,2,,2;

Next beta renameitem("newname", , 8) will work for folders if the target folder is empty.
