Change Suffix v0.9
* * * This is beta-quality software! You might get hurt :) * * *
* * * WARNING! * * As of version 0.9 the usage of this tool was changed! * * If you used older versions before, consider rereading the Docs!!! * * *
chsuf changes the suffix of files and/or directories. It also can be used to add a suffix to a list of files.
chsuf might be useful to change DOS-style three character extensions to more readable variations (eg htm to html), or to add an extension to filenames for later use on platforms which depend on them.
Requirements
This program is written in Perl, so you need a working Perl5 installation on your system to use it. It is only tested on GNU/Unix-like systems, and might only work on such a system.
Installation
As of version 0.8 chsuf uses the GNU configuration tools (autoconf). So installation works the usual way - just type in the source directory:
./configure
make
To install chsuf type in the source directory (as root):
make install
To uninstall type in the source directory (as root):
make uninstall
Documentation
After installing chsuf the documentation is available with the command:
man chsuf
If you simply did a 'make' without installing, type (in the source directory):
man ./chsuf.1
