You've gotten a few good answers, here's one more that may require less editing of your scripts that depend on Jons Commands:



set fileNameNew to (fileNameNew & mySuffix) as string -- new name for file

set filePath to (srcFolder & fileName) as string -- path to file to be renamed

tell application "Finder" to set  name of file filePath to fileNameNew
