Question

I haven’t got Linux on my computer at the moment, so I was wondering if someone can test this code I wrote.

It is supposed to rename a file extension when you type something like this, to run it, into the terminal:

chaxxx zzz yyy *.zzz

“chaxxx” being the name of the file.

Here’s the code I wrote:

Use an online compiler & interpreter for your tests. ideone supports Bash Script too.

EDIT:

It does work. ren.sh is your script name, here you go:

$ ls
asdf.doc  ren.sh  text.txt

$ ./ren.sh txt doc *.txt
text.txt
text

$ ls
asdf.doc  ren.sh  text.doc
