** chgext.c - Change a file's extension
**
** public domain by Bob Stout
**
** Arguments: 1 - Pathname
** 2 - Old extension (NULL if don't care)
** 3 - New extension
**
** Returns: Pathname or NULL if failed
**
** Note: Pathname buffer must be long enough to append new extension
**
** Side effect: Converts Unix style pathnames to DOS style
