Batch renaming without using "for" in bash shell {}
I'm pretty sure I've seen something like:
mv filename{.*} newfilename{} or something like that where the bash shell fills in the second thing with whatever is in the {} for the first one.
I tried googling "}" but to no avail. Just kidding, but seriously, does anyone know the form for this thing? I hate to screw with "find --exec" or lines like "for $i...;", etc., for such a simple thing.
