Script to Rename Files
I wrote a simple script that converts my windows text files to unix, so that I can compare them to different unix files purposes of my project.
win2unix file1.txt file1Win.txt
win2unix file2.txt file2Win.txt
etc
Is there a way to simplify this to:
<while .txt in directory>
win2unix <filename>.txt <filename>Win.txt
So I don't have to retype each filename in the script when I have new files for it. I want each converted file to have "Win" added to it so I know it is converted. I just can't a command or character that "maintains" the name of the previous filename so I can add to it. Thanks!

XZDIFF(1) XZ Utils XZDIFF(1)
NAME
xzcmp, xzdiff, lzcmp, lzdiff - compare compressed files
SYNOPSIS
xzcmp [cmp_options] file1 [file2]
xzdiff [diff_options] file1 [file2]
lzcmp [cmp_options] file1 [file2]
lzdiff [diff_options] file1 [file2]
DESCRIPTION
xzcmp and xdiff invoke cmp(1) or diff(1) on files compressed with xz(1), lzma(1), gzip(1), or bzip2(1). All options specified are passed
directly to cmp or diff. If only one file is specified, then the files compared are file1 (which must have a suffix of a supported com-
pression format) and file1 from which the compression format suffix has been stripped. If two files are specified, then they are uncom-
pressed if necessary and fed to cmp(1) or diff(1). The exit status from cmp or diff is preserved.
The names lzcmp and lzdiff are provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
SEE ALSO
cmp(1), diff(1), xz(1), gzip(1), bzip2(1), zdiff(1)
BUGS
Messages from the cmp(1) or diff(1) programs refer to temporary filenames instead of those specified.
