Renaming Files to .STT

[Minor]

Hi all.

Got my Gamepark today and was trying to get Castaway to work.

All my ROMS are in the .ST format and after reading the Readme I found that the images need to have a 3 letter extention.

My ROMS are accociated with the PC Atari ST Emulator moron, whats the best way to rename the .ST file to .STT in Windows XP.

Just right clicking & choosing rename doesn't work.

Thanks in advance.

OK sussed it out.

My folder options where hiding the file extension(just updated to XP).

Thanks anyway.

If you want to rename all the files faster, just make a file in notepad that says:

ren *.st *.stt

Then save it as "rename.bat" (with the quotes.) Whenever you run it, it'll name all the roms in that dir from .st to .stt

Forgot about this and after looking at my smc noticed half my st games have a .st extension and they still work on my gp32?!? :unsure:

its just that if u dont have the patched pc link or a card reader, the normal pc link wont transfer files with less than a 3 letter extention.
