What is wrong with my code?

Your link http://pastebin.com/dExFtTkp  shows two copies of the code.  
I'm assuming they're identical, and using the second one.

How do you know no rename action is done?  Did you do a dir before and 
after running it?  Were there any files that actually had underscores in 
them?  Did you try adding a print to the innermost if statement to see 
if it ever ran?  Did you try adding a print right after the os.rename 
that showed both nome and final?

When I run it in CPython 2.7 on Linux, it successfully renamed the file 
(dumm_1.txt) I had supplied.

davea at think:~/pytests$ ls
dumm_1.txt  itpone.itp~  lina.py~    pdbone.pdb~  prim.py~
itpone.itp  lina.py      pdbone.pdb  prim.py      whatswrong.py
davea at think:~/pytests$ python whatswrong.py dumm_1.txt
davea at think:~/pytests$ ls
dumm 1.txt  itpone.itp~  lina.py~    pdbone.pdb~  prim.py~
itpone.itp  lina.py      pdbone.pdb  prim.py      whatswrong.py
davea at think:~/pytests$

(I had to delete the following part, since you put yours out of order)
