Well, I don't even know where to start. If you can point me to the
right command I could probably google more...
Anyway, I have a directory with several subdirectories in it. I
want to change file names in several ways.
1) lower-case everything
2) strip out spaces and special characters.
3) make jpg, jpeg, jpe, etc.. all into jpg
And make sure that nothing collides, such as name.jpg and
name.gif. They have to have different names because of another
program that makes jpg thumbnails of all images. If necessary I'm
willing to rename all the files to something like Image0001.jpg,
image0002.gif, image0003.gif, etc.. And, if possible, do hidden
folders and files also.
Anyway, if anyone can get me started I'd appreciate it.
Pick up a copy of Learning Perl and get to reading. This is simple
enough, but you want to learn it... not have someone do it for you,
right?
