This command will do what you want, if your Linux distribution has the
rename command installed.
rename .php .mp3 *.php
To learn more about the rename command, you can look at its manual page
or its info page.
man rename
info rename
(Hey, *I* didn't know abut the rename command until just now. I was
looking for an old Perl script by that name, which is much clunkier
but more general. I just deleted the Perl script from my path --
this is better.)
