    Rename FIles

    Is it possible to go into a directory and rename a bunch of files instead of renaming one at a time in windows dos. I want to append something to about 100 files and dont want to take the long route. Basically I need to go into the directory and snatch each file and rename.
    Thanks,
    Jon

    Couldn't you just use a loop?
