But I am sorry to say that I could not get it to work.
The script runs and then I get prompt again but there is no indication if it goes wrong somewhere, I even tried to change the video root to a dummy directory to invoke some feedback but to no avail.
I've used "touch" to make some dummy files in the specified directory and subdirectories: some with the same name but different extension (.img and .iso, obviously, and some other just to see if they are affected), and some files with different permissions (chmod 777 on most).
But not one changed the extension.
The script itself is located in one directory level above the "media root" (as set in the script).
Code:
$ ls -l img2iso
total 0
-rwxrwxrwx 1 astrid 619956085 0 Feb 15 13:01 dummy.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 astrid 619956085 0 Feb 15 21:50 dummy.iso
-rwxrwxrwx 1 astrid 619956085 0 Feb 15 13:01 example.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 astrid 619956085 0 Feb 15 21:35 example_no_permission.img
-rwxrwxrwx 1 astrid 619956085 0 Feb 15 13:01 image.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 astrid 619956085 0 Feb 15 13:01 isoimg.iso
drwxr-xr-x 2 astrid 619956085 68 Feb 15 12:53 level1a
drwxr-xr-x 9 astrid 619956085 306 Feb 15 13:00 level1b
How do you write a shell script that change the extension of all the files?
e.g
chext rtf doc
where .rtf is the original extension
and .doc is the new extension
is it something to do with basename?
do I need a for loop?
Please help!

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
img-bmp - Img, Windows Bitmap Format (bmp)
SYNOPSIS
package require Tk
package require img::bmp ?1.4?
image create photo ?name? ?options?
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
The package img::bmp is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the complete Img support, via package require Img, or on its
own, via package require img::bmp.
Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image so that it supports files containing
raster images in the Windows Bitmap Format (bmp). More specifically img::bmp extends Tk's photo image type.
The name of the new format handler is bmp. This handler does not provide additional configuration options.
All of the above means that in a call like
image create photo ?name? ?options?
[1] Image data in bmp format (options -data and -file) is detected automatically.
[2] The format name bmp is recognized by the option -format.
