Thank you very much!
Really appreciated the brevity - or, more accurately, the absence of waffle.

I use this at work to change the Client's Project number on Docs, to my Company's. It's really useful.

I missed the part where you actually show how to write a bash script to rename multiple files :3

[devon]

There is a similiar `rename` command which is part of `util-linux`. It looks like `rename JPEG jpg *.JPEG`.

Tempted to write a shell script using sed and xargs to accomplish the same thing. Should be easy.
Then again I thought the same thing about an MPV lua script and it took me hours to get it right earlier today.

I made a function for .bashrc file so you wont need to install any extra crap
function rn() {
pathto="$(pwd)"
varin=$1
varout=$2
#
for file in *.$varin ; do
mv $file $(echo $file | rev | cut -c4- | rev).$varout
done
}

# Example usage:
rn md txt

[marksawesomeadventures]

sudo apt install rename (see what happens)

[davidgomez]

for i in *.jpg; do while read LINE; do if [ $i != $LINE ]; then mv $i $LINE; fi; done < <(echo $i | sed 's/jpg/JPEG/g'); done
this line worked, should be able to create a simple script from it to rename using sed
just like that perl script does with very little tweaking.

Oh, it look like vim replace command. :D
