Title: Account renaming — how?
Post by: kseistrup on June 05, 2011, 06:03:26 PM
I have a few bitcoinds running on Linux.  In each of them there's an account labelled "" and another one labelled "Your Address".  Is there any way I can rename those from the command line?

Cheers,

You can move money from one account to the other using the 'move' command, but that leaves the old account there even if it's empty. So, sorry, I don't think there's [yet] a way to rename via the command line.

Hm, thanks anyway (would I be able to do it with the GUI client?).  :)

Cheers,

Code:
bitcoind setaccount <bitcoinaddress> <account>

(overwrites old label/account name)
