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.
Something like:
while (<*>) {
rename $_, "$1$2.jpg" if $_ =~ /(.+) (.+)\.jpg/;
}
what does <*> mean here?
thanks.
