Changing name to files in bash respecting the number associated to each file

Question

I have a bunch of files in bash named myfile1.sh, myfile2.sh, myfile3.sh... and so on. I would like to remove the sh part in each one of them, that is: rename to myfile1, myfile2, myfile3, ... Do you have a suggestion to do it all at once?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

If you have the rename command, you can use it:

rename 's/\.sh$//' *.sh

A bash one-liner can be:

for f in *.sh; do mv "$f" "${f%.sh}"; done

Answer 2

for i in *.sh; do mv "$i" "${i%.sh}"; done
