Okay, clickbait subject line, but hear me out.
I had a bunch of files called *.sh for backing up stuff.
I decided to use `run-parts` to run the entire folder of shell scripts
at once.
`run-parts` won't run *.sh files (?!?), they need to be *.s-h or
something dumb.
I wanted to REName *.sh -> *.
In DOS: `ren *.sh *.`
In bash, that will not work (with file globbing & pathname expansion
enabled by default).
I had to do this instead:
for I in *.sh ; do
mv ${I} ${I%%.sh}
done
Clearly, DOS > bash.
(Told ya so, Hugh.)
