Hello,

I have created a dosrename script and it was working fine unitl today. I can't think what i have changed (don't think i have to be honest). The error is when i run the script it says the file i am trying to rename does not exist when it blatently does.
Or is it a typo when i run the script?

Here is what i type:

myscript q.* l.*

I have three files q1 q2 q3 and when i did this yesterday it would change them all to l1 l2 l3 but now it says

mv: cannot stat `q.*': No such file or directory

If this is not a typo and you need to see my script i can post it.

Thanks

Is it q.* or q*?

Have you tried this?

Yes i have tried this already. This does not give the error however does not rename the file where as yesterday when i did the
myscript q.* l.*
it would change the filename

Would you mind posting the script myscript? May be we can help after seeing the script.

Ha Ha
Silly me it was a typo!
The script is for files with extensions so when i was testing it yesterday i was using

q.1 q.2 q.3

not

q1 q2 q3 which has no file extensions so would not work with my script lol
