emacs: renaming files in a programming project

Renaming files

n that old thread about renaming files I didn't specify WHY I wanted to do it. It's from a thread I started in the procmail-users list. Thanks for all the various ideas. I'm staying with the for-loop for simplicity's sake and because this will never see that many files. What
