I am new to unix scripting. we are using bash. My task is I have dir which contains 30 files.

The first column in each file is Date field. For all the files I need to extract
the date part Ex(2007-09-05) from the file and add that at the end of that file.

for example:

The file names are like test.txt,test1.txt,test2.txt

it need to be changed as test_2007-09-05.txt etc.

test.txt
