Scripting question

Preview of command prompt
f ---> to start ferret
q----> to stop ferret

Code:
asp@nex:~$ f
     NOAA/PMEL TMAP
     FERRET v6.82  
     Linux 2.6.18-308.8.2.el5PAE 32-bit - 08/03/12
      3-Dec-12 16:44    
 
yes? go my.jnl

yes?column=4/skip=1/type=num,text ............filename.txt

---
---some code...to do some task
---
yes?save/file=filename.nc ........................................
yes? q

after the execution of quite process script has to do one more thing that is to change the base of filename both (filename.txt and filename.nc) at the beginning and end with the next file's base in a directory till the end of all the files in a directory

again script has to enter f in command prompt.....
and has to run go my.jnl
;
;
again change file base name in my.jnl file

I replaced base of file manually one after another by putting my.jnl file in separate directory by this script

Code:
#!/bin/bash
# Replaces string in a jnl file 
#it kills my time in replacing string..
OLD="data1"
NEW="data2"
TFILE="/tmp/out.tmp.$$"
for file in *.jnl; do
  if [ -f $file -a -r $file ]; then
      sed "s/$OLD/$NEW/g" "$file" > $TFILE && mv $TFILE "$file"
  else
   echo "Error: Cannot read $file"
  fi
done

As I am very poor in programming I could not able to do the task which I actually required for my task

I looking forward for positive reply...


Thanks in advance..
