}I'm looking for a wildcard expansion mechanism, where for example I could
}do mv *.c *.o.
}E.g. an expansion where I only get the * part. 

There is a really nifty program called "mmv" that allows for all sorts
of fun expansions to occur.  It is available at uunet.uu.net in vol 21
of the comp.sources.unix archive...
