                        Add new feature to base.plugin.bash
Description
New function labeled rex()  servers a single purpose. Replace the file extensions of multiple file at once. File extensions usually does not quite matter in bash, but there is a few cases when one might needs to and this function simplifies the process from multiple commands into one.
The Function
function rex() {
	about 'mass replace of the extension of multiple files'
 	param '1: extension to replace'
  	param '2: new extenstion'
   	example 'rex txt md'
    	group 'base'
	local ext2replace="${1:-}"
 	local newext="${2:-}"
  	local files=(`ls *.$ext2replace`)
   	for file in "${files[@]}"; do mv "$file" "${file/%.$ext2replace/.$newext}"; done
}
How Has This Been Tested?
Created multiple test files with different extensions, than proceeded to use rex to only change the specified extension which worked flawlessly
