Redundant technologyMusic on vinyl records, mobile phones the size of house bricks and pornography printed on paper. What hideously out of date stuff do you still use?

/bin/csh
% ls
50test.txt
% rename 50 100 50*
% ls
50test.txt
didn't work.
I think (don't know) that 'rename' is a PERL script that's unlikely to be influenced much by the shell it's running on.
however rename does accept perl regexps... so you could use:
rename 's/^50/100/' 50*
Better than my messy sub routine.
(Just confirmed on my Gentoo system)
