Subject: mass rename help
I have a bunch of files named "meetthegimp=mobile999.mp4" where 999 is any
3 digit number. I want to rename them all to be
"meetthegimp999-mobile.mp4".

Can anyone give me a mv or rename command to do them all in one fell
swoop? I could probably figure one out but it would take more time due to
having to make test cases and doing trial and error than just asking you
folks. Thanks in advance.
