I think Jimbo answered your question about
mv and wild cards. In a nutshell, if the
file name "Nov*df" expands into more than one
file name, you could not logically move it
to a single target file name. Only a directory
name would be valid in this case.
Also, the line...
rename $fname Nname
...should be...
mv $fname $Nname
...don't forget that leading "$" when using
variables in your script (which of course is
not used in variable assignment).

NAME
mcxalter - various network transformations
SYNOPSIS
mcxalter [-imx <fname> (specify matrix input)] [-abc <fname> (specify label input)] [-tab <fname> (use tab file)] [-o <fname> (output)] [-tf

DESCRIPTION
This utility supplies various transformations of networks.
OPTIONS
-abc <fname> (label input)
The file name for input that is in label format.
-imx <fname> (input matrix)
The file name for input that is in mcl native matrix format.
-tab <fname> (use tab file)
This option causes the output to be printed with the labels found in the tab file. With -abc this option will, additionally, construct a
graph only on the labels found in the tab file. If this option is used in conjunction with -imx the tab domain and the matrix domain are
required to be identical.

Transform the input matrix values according to the syntax described in mcxio(5).
-o fname (output file)
