Would that not look for 2 files, called dot-log and dot-old?

For instance, I frequently need to do things
like:
REN *.log *.old
... which works fine on DOS, Windows and most other OSs but doesn't
work on Unix/Linux.
On RedHat, this should work...
rename .log .old *.log
But there seems to be a different 'rename' on Ubuntu (a link to
/usr/bin/prename, a Perl script).
