rename numbered files to numbered files with leading zeroes
Hi,
I have some hundreds/thousands of files named logX.dat, where X can be any integer, and they are sequential, X ranges between 1 and any number:
log1.dat log2.dat log3.dat log6.dat log10.dat ... log6000.dat
I would like to rename them to
scatter_params_0001.dat scatter_params_0002.dat scatter_params_0003.dat scatter_params_0006.dat scatter_params_0010.dat scatter_params_6000.dat
Note that in the scatter files I need them with leading zeroes, which are absent in the original log files.
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks
Pau

SYNOPSIS
A program to rapidly identify which genotypes are possible for individuals typed as unknowns in the input pedigree.
unknown [ -cl ]
DESCRIPTION
unknown infers possible genotypes and mating combinations for parents with unknown genotypes for ilink(1), mlink(1) and linkmap(1).
OPTIONS
-c Use conditional allele frequencies.
-l Choose a good set of loop breakers automatically.
RETURN VALUE
0 Successful completion

unknown
mlink
FILES
unknown(1) reads the two files pedfile.dat and datafile.dat as its own input and produces various temporary files that are used as input to
the next program. These temporary files are ipedfile.dat, upedfile.dat, speedfile.dat and newspeedfile.dat.
NOTES
unknown(1) is part of the FASTLINK package, which is a re-implementation of the LINKAGE suite of computer tools that help investigate
genetic linkage as first proposed G.M. Lathrop, J.M. Lalouel, C. Julier, and J. Ott.
