[PLUG] batch renaming

[Art Alexion <art.alexion@verizon.net>]

in dos if I wanted to rename a batch of files i a directory, I could do

    move (or rn) ??.txt 61??.txt

and it would rename all of the two character-named text files to prepend
61.  Bash won't let me do this as

    mv ??.txt 61??.txt

returns an error indicating that. when moving multiple files, the target
must be a directory.  Is there a command that will let me do this?
