renaming files
I am wondering if there is a way to take a bunch of files and change the name
of them without having to do them one at a time.
this is an example of what i want to do:
example.jpg (could be html files, css files, etc) to example.1.jpg
I am looking to have files match the build number. I know i can just copy
the file if I name each one, but there are a few hundred files and this
could make for a ugly looking target.

disregard...I am a bit sick today..brain a bit slow..figured it out with:
<target name="content">
<move todir="mosApp/style" includeemptydirs="false">
<fileset dir="mosApp/style">
<include name="**/*.css"/>
</fileset>
<mapper type="glob" from="*.css" to="*.1.css"/>
</move>
</target>

I believe you should look here:
http://ant.apache.org/manual/Types/mapper.html
(check out the globmapper).
