What Others Think

If you have the Perl 'rename' installed, you can use the already known: rename 's/foo/bar/' foo*.jpg

for file in foo*.jpg; do mv "$file" "${file/foo/bar}"; done

This is the *definition* of command-line-fu.

The util-linux-ng rename works nicely here too. At least in debian/ubuntu it is included by default and invoked explicitly as rename.ul: rename.ul foo bar *.jpg no quoting here, and the shell will expand *.jpg. If you needed to go recursive, in zsh and bash4.0 just replace *.jpg with **/*.jpg, otherwise find works for this: find . -name "foo*.jpg" -exec rename.ul foo bar {} + . Pretty soon I am going to start keeping a running count of how file-renaming submissions have been made here at commandlinefu.
