Here is basic script.

Code:
#! /bin/sh
# mv.sh
FILE1=file1.ext
FILE2=file2.ext

for file in $FILE1 $FILE2
do
        FILE=${file/\./ }
        echo $file -- $FILE
done

Code:
[~/temp]$ ./mv.sh 
file1.ext -- file1 ext
file2.ext -- file2 ext

You can use this a starting point.

App::Cmd::Command::commands(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			  App::Cmd::Command::commands(3pm)

NAME
App::Cmd::Command::commands - list the application's commands VERSION
version 0.318 DESCRIPTION
This command plugin implements a "commands" command. This command will list all of an App::Cmd's commands and their abstracts. METHODS
execute This is the command's primary method and raison d'etre. It prints the application's usage text (if any) followed by a sorted listing of the application's commands and their abstracts. The commands are printed in sorted groups (created by "sort_commands"); each group is set off by blank lines. "sort_commands" my @sorted = $cmd->sort_commands(@unsorted); This method orders the list of commands into sets which it returns as a list of arrayrefs. By default, the first group is for the "help" and "commands" commands, and all other commands are in the second group. AUTHOR
