How do I rename all the files from .htm to .html after copying them from a PC to a UNIX machine?

UNIX's mv (`move') command won't handle wildcard filenames.
However, there's a program called htmaddl (for `HTM-add-"L"'), so you can login and type htmaddl.
This will rename all .htm files to .html
If you haven't got this program on your UNIX machine, you can type it into a file called htmaddl:
#! /bin/sh
for f in *.htm;
do
base=`basename
$f .htm`
mv $f $base.html
After saving it and exiting your editor, make it executable by typing the command
chmod ugo+x htmaddl
Best of all, move it into your ~/bin directory, or ask your WebMeister to put it in /usr/local/bin so everyone can use it.
