change the format of a giving file ( a bit challenge) Thank you

Hi,

I have a file like this:

mgr1.dbf
tool.dbf
usr.dbf
wow19.dbf
wow2wow.dbf

Can anyone help change the format after each line of reading to:

mgr2.dbf # add 1 of *1.dbf
tool2.dbf # if not a number exist, make it default to 2
usr2.dbf
wow20.dbf # add 1 of *19.dbf
wow3wow.dbf # add 1 of *1*.dbf

thank you for the help!

smd-client(1)						 Sync Mail Dir (smd) documentation					     smd-client(1)

NAME
smd-client - receives diffs and performs actions SYNOPSIS
smd-client [-v|--verbose] [-d|--dry-run] [-t|--translator] [-l|--local-sync] [--rename-only] [--override-db dbf] endpoint mailboxes DESCRIPTION
smd-client needs to know a name (endpoint) for the client (that must not be used by others) and a list of mailboxes (directories). smd-client waits on stdin a mail dir diff. It attempts to execute these actions, eventually asking data printing commands on stdout and expecting the data on stdin. OPTIONS
-t --translator Specify a program to translate remote mailbox names to local ones. Note that the translator 'cat' (the identity program) is opti- mized away -l --local-sync Local synchronization, no changes is made to the db-file since smd-server takes care of it --rename-only Do not synchronize the mailboxes but generate the script '~/smd-rename.sh' to uniform the files names in the mailbox --override-db dbf Use dbf as the db-file -v --verbose Increase program verbosity (printed on stderr) -d --dry-run Do not perform any action for real NOTES
smd-client is a low level utility. You should use higher level tools like smd-pull(1) and smd-push(1) SEE ALSO
mddiff(1), smd-server(1), smd-pull(1), smd-push(1) AUTHOR
