How do you use FIND to globally rename files?
I find that some music files that have '!' embedded in them
to cause conflicts especially when attempting to use
Nautilus to move them from one location into another,
so I wish to rename files that have offending characters
in them.
I tried:
1) find . -type f -name \*.mp3 -exec mv "{}" `echo \"{}\" | sed -e
's/[!]//`" \;
Nope. Does not work.
2) find . -type f -name \*.mp3 | xargs "echo "mv \"{}\" `echo \"{}\" |
sed -e 's/\!//`""
Ah, this is really convoluted, of course it does not work. It is
rife with errors indeed!
:)
Um, help!?!?
Kind regards,
Dan
