I've had the need for renaming files in bulk pretty often. Above must
be a neat tool but this is how I used to get my work done.

For example, if I had to rename files ending with ".JPG" to ".jpg",

$ for i in *JPG; do j=`basename $i .JPG`; mv "$i" "$j".jpg; done

As you suggested, adding date/time stamps are straight forward by this too.


Just sharing ideas,
