Here's a simple shell script I adapted from one of my data handling
procedures that should do what you need:
#!/bin/tcsh
foreach fred ( `ls *` )
mv $fred $fred.mp3
end
Just put this into a text file, make the file executable, and run it in
the directory where your mp3's are. As usual, you might want to do this
after making a backup copy of your files.
