Renaming Multiple Files using Regular Expressions
Many times I am presented with a set of files whose names I need to rename to fit a certain pattern, for example:
Old file name pg 1.pdf
Old file name pg 2.pdf
etc.
And you want to change it to:
File_name_1.pdf
File_name_2.pdf
etc.
Well I found a nice little utility to to take a set of files and with a little regular expression you can do just this and more: RenameRegEx from 12noon.
