Rename multiple files, groups of files
        1) rename -- Debian version and RedHat version differ, q.v.
           (try package util-linux:
           http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Util-linux)

        2) ren -- RedHat relatives

        3) renameutils -- package contains qmv, imv, icp, qcp, and deurlname

        4) mved -- (circa 2006; good as of 2015.05), perl
           http://raf.org/mved/
           (An earlier shell version may be available.)

        5) rename -- perl builtin library routine (DIY)

mmv "$XXX_LOG_DIR/*.audit.gz" "$XXX_LOG_DIR/#1.audit.log.gz"

for file in $XXX_LOG_DIR/*.audit.gz
do
  [ -f "$file" ] || continue
  chop_end=${file%.audit.gz}
  dest=${chop_end}.audit.log.gz
  mv "$file" "$dest"
done
