get hold of a *very* old MS-DOS system disk and the appropriate manual and
 user EDLIN.EXE. This will be a nightmare for those grown up in the GUI ages
 but EDLIN is a valuable tool for batch conversions like yours.

If you use long file names you have a slight problem here. But this could be
 solved by a batch file: Save the old file name, rename the file to 8.3, use
 EDLIN, rename the file back.

BTW you might find other editors with batch capabilities in the software
 developer domain, e.g. MicroEMACS. I could even imagine that UNIX VI should
 work fine here.


Greetings from Germany,
Alexander
