That recursively finds all files starting in whatever directory you like,
and creates the newly-named files with all the references corrected as
desired (with a small addition, the old files can be archived or removed).
I just had some fun with that script and a copy of an old doc root ... 17
directories, deepest directory was at 3 levels, and 216 .php3 files (from
1998 :) ... took a few seconds to make all the modifications.
