You can do something like that :
Code:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
# ScriptFile: newfile

filename=$1
name=${filename%?}
suffix=${filename#$name}
new_suffix=$(echo "$suffix" | tr 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ' 'BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ_')

if [ "$new_suffix" = "_" ]
then
   echo "No new suffix avalaible for file $filename "
else
   new_filename="$name$new_suffix"
   echo "New filename : $new_filename"
fi

Examples :
Code:
$ newfile 098A
New filename : 098B
$ newfile 098M
New filename : 098N
$ newfile 098Z
No new suffix avalaible for file 098Z
$

Jean-Pierre.
