in reply to Re^2: Perl Rename
in thread Perl Rename
Works for me if I invoke like this:
rnm "s/Blah Blah - \d{2} - //" "Blah Blah - 01 - Peter.txt" "Blah Blah + - 02 - Lois.txt"
Of course, that requires I supply the names of the files to be renamed because cmd.exe doesn't expand wildcards for you. If you want that to happen, you'll have to modify the script a little:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w $op = shift or die "Usage: rename expr [files]\n"; chomp( @ARGV ); @ARGV = map glob, @ARGV; for ( @ARGV ) { $was = $_; eval $op; die $@ if $@; rename ( $was, $_ ) unless $was eq $_; }
Then rnm "s/Blah Blah - \d{2} - //" *.txt works.
