Command to move groups of files

Somone a month or so ago posted a list of little known Cygwin commands, and in that list was a cool command that allowed you to rename a list of files, like thus: cmd First*.* Second*.* which would rename all files starting with "First" to be "Second". I used this command a bit, and then promptly
