I'm trying to change a name of a file, but I can't...

post(f.filename); // I check the new name is right : 

I have no error, but in my path, my file is already named "zorblug.txt"...

In the doc I found:
filename (String, get/set) 
The current filename. 

If I have something like: 
(in my path I have a file "zorblug.txt")

   f = new File("zorblug.txt","readwrite");
   f.filename = f.filename + ".turlututu";
   post(f.filename); // I check the new name is right :   
                     //"zorblug.txt.turlututu"
   f.close();

I have no error, but in my path, my file is already named "zorblug.txt"...
Why ???...

i also want to change a filename with javascript.

has somebody found a solution the last 3 years.

f = new File( theFilePath, "readwrite" );

i know, that this can be done with an external, java or shell command. but in my case it would be realy complicated ....

the helpfile says:
filename (String, get/set) 
The current filename.

so i tryed:
f = new File( theFilePath, "readwrite" );
f.filename = "my_new_file.mov";
f.close ();
