Morning Sluggers
I am having trouble with something simple which I am sure is easy. I just
want to rename all the files in a directory from say their existing name to
p-existingname. e.g. mv p1.fmt pp1.fmt but for all the files in a
directory.
mv wont do it so I thought use find with -exec. However, {} in -exec gives
a full path name whichis fine for say adding .old to the end of the file
names but not manipulating the beginning.
I am sure my brain has just switched off but I couldn't solve it. Any
suggestions gratefully received.
regards
Steven
