Hi Terry,

> There are 11 folders, so the script or command needs to be recursive.

Assuming apostrophe as in ASCII 39 and not a sexy one and given
/usr/bin/prename from package perl, this will print what it would rename
but not carry it out.  Remove the `-n' if you're happy.

    find -type f -print0 | xargs -r0 prename -n "s/'//g"

Cheers, Ralph.
