IIRC, mmv is very much debian specific. Most distros, however,
pack rename (usually at /usr/bin). The other option is to use a
script like this:
#!/bin/bash
# ren : script to rename extensions of files
if ! [ $2 ]; then
echo "Usage: `basename $0` [old-suffix] [new-suffix]"; exit 1
fi
for FILENAME in *$1; do
mv $FILENAME ${FILENAME%$1}$2
done
exit 0
