In Windows, the quickest way is:
os.system( "rename *.old *.new" )
I have a vague memory that this won't work on
all versions of Windows... possibly it isn't

Using Jason Orendorff's path.py module:
# change all .py files in '.' to extension .new
from path import path
for f in path('.').files():
if f.endswith('.py'):
f.rename(f.splitext()[0] + '.new')

This should work:
import os
def change_exts(suffix, new_suffix, dir_name):
for name in os.listdir(dir_name):
if name.endswith(suffix):
old_pathname = os.path.join(dir_name, name)

Using os.listdir, os.path.split and os.rename.
