[luv-beginners] one time script

hi after some downloads I ended up with 175 files with names that looked like scan=scan. after some attempts which I renamed with this vastly sub-optimal script $ for i in `ls *=*`; do out=`echo $i | sed -e 's@[^*=]*@@'`; of=`echo $out | sed 's/=//'`; mv $i $of; done so looking for a hint on how better to have done it.
