I have several hundred *.jpg files with this pattern Actual example:
'AtlantaVisitAndGrandmaHands 056.jpg' The numbers vary, of course, but the alpha part and number of digits after the space is the same in all *.jpg files I have hundreds of these all in one directory. Not something you'd want to do one at a time. I tried to figure a way using the perl `rename' tool found in many linux distro's repos But couldnt figure out the necessary syntax from Larry Wall's examples in the rename man page. Using the "s///" operators , it's probably there some how but my pea brain isn't seeimg it. bash has just used the apostrophes to make the names usable but I would much rather remove the space. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
