For sure! I don't bother with all that clicking ... now you [Unix folk]
don't have to either :)
#!/bin/sh
for PHP3FILE in `find . -type f -name "*.php3" -print`
do
PHP4FILE=`echo ${PHP3FILE} | sed 's/\.php3/\.php/g'`
sed 's/\.php3/\.php/g' ${PHP3FILE} > ${PHP4FILE}
done
#END OF SCRIPT
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.

Whoops, my mistake ... got into my server config mindset and I was off and racing. :) Incidentally, what you ARE talking about is very easy in IMOS, with the right tool. Homesite. Open all the files, replace ".php3" with ".php" in "All Open Documents"... save 'em all and change the filenames in the file list and you're done. But then, the right tools make the job easy regardless of platform.

I have to do it all the time (actually sometimes its to regress from php back to php3). from the command line: rename *.php3 *.php Then I use my text editor which has global file find and replace to make the changes.
