Hi,
i have to rename hunderts of files:
is there a easy way to do this (without writing a script)?
krename
It is a GUI. You can see how the files will be renamed before doing it, and has undo.
Needs a bit of learning.
I've used krename for this type of renaming before. In this case, on opening the program, go to the fourth tab, 'Filename' at the top, then click the 'Advanced Filename' tab underneath. You can click on the 'Functions' button to get a descriptive list of possibilities, so one that would work here is [$x-y] character x to y of old filename. So you'd want to put [$1-6] in the Template field. It shows you the result in the box below on all the files you've selected, before having to commit. gumb
