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!

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification
SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam;
$lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages'
$code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa'
@codes = all_langfam_codes();
@names = all_langfam_names();
DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in
ISO 639-5.
Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5
language family codes will be used.
SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a
constant that is automatically exported by this module.
For example, the two are equivalent:
$lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha');
$lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA);
The codesets currently supported are:
alpha
This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages.
This is the default code set.
ROUTINES
code2langfam ( CODE [,CODESET] )
langfam2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
langfam_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
all_langfam_codes ( [CODESET] )
all_langfam_names ( [CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::rename_langfam ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::add_langfam ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::delete_langfam ( CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::add_langfam_alias ( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::delete_langfam_alias ( NAME )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::rename_langfam_code ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::add_langfam_code_alias ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangFam::delete_langfam_code_alias ( CODE [,CODESET] )
These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
