Hello Know-It-Alls,
If I have a directory with a whole slew of files with the same file extension, for example:
1-1-1.inc 1-1-2.inc 1-1-3.inc etc.
What command can I use to change the file extension - but keep the file name the same - in one swell swoop? The equivalent command in Windows would be:
C:\>ren *.inc *.htm
Jonas Fornander - System Administrator Netwood Communications,LLC - www.netwood.net Find out why we're better - 310-442-1530
from an sh type shell
for i in *.inc
do
z=`echo $i | sed -e "s/inc/htm/g"`
mv ${i} ${z}
done(not tested, but should work.)
