I have 2699 files with the filename extension .chk, and I'd like to change them all to .jpg.

Can anybody tell me what the code would be, or point me in the direction of a good tutorial that would apply to my situation?

I'm sure lots of people will chime in with their favorite handlers, but if you want something right now, fire up Automator -- it's in your Applications folder -- and build a two-action workflow:


	Get Selected Finder Items
	Rename Finder Items (Replace Text, find: chk, replace: jpg)

Select all the files, click the Run button in Automator, and there you are. Depending on how the files are laid out, you might have an easier time if you change the first action to something like Get Selected Finder Items followed by Get Folder Contents.
