Changing names for all files in subdirectroies

I have a folder with a number of subfolders. Each of the subfolders consists of several files without extension. I need to add extension .cel to each file in subfolders.

How can I do it using bash?

If you have rename then using that with find should do the trick:

find . -type f -exec rename -v 's/$/\.cel/' {} \;

find to the rescue:

find /your/folder -type f -exec mv {} {}.cel \;

Explanation: find obtains all files inside the /your/folder structure. From all the results obtained, it performs the mv command. It makes the file XXX to be moved to XXX.cel, which is another way of renaming it.
