Tony / Matthew / Robert >>> Many thanks for your quick and very helpful replies. I've tried Tony's one-liner, which would work a treat with orthodox file names. Sadly, a lot of mine are from CD rips, and contain spaces. So the suggested script gags on the un-escaped spaces. Rats! Looks like I may have to do them by hand after all. Thanks ever so much for the ideas, though, as I now know about 300% about how to do this than I did a couple of hours ago. What a great list! -- Diana -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
