Here's a handy way of quickly renaming a bunch of .thtml files to .ctp
files if you are converting a 1.1 application:
To change the extension for a group of file names in nested folders
(via the shell on a Linux/Unix box with Perl / Rename already
installed ...and proper permissions of course)
* ext1 would the extension you want to change
* ext2 is the extension you would like to change to
* /path/to/folder is the folder and subfolders where you are
trying to change the files
find /path/to/folder -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rename -v 's/\.ext1$/
\.ext2/' *.ext1
If you want to preview what changes will be made, use the -n option
like this
find /path/to/folder -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rename -v -n 's/
\.ext1$/\.ext2/' *.ext1
here is an example:
/var/www/cakeapp -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rename -v -n 's/\.thtml$/
\.ctp/' *.thtml
You may want to back up your application first.. use at your own risk.
