Comments for massrename
bugfix
I just realized there was a bug with massrename regarding files with spaces JUST after i released 0.9.6, and I've fixed it just as fast. If you downloaded massrename before 6:00am-ish Eastern Standard Time, re-download it to get the fix.
new version soon.
A new version will be released soon, after I implment a few more things and get some kinks worked out.

You're welcome, and I knew I could do it so much simpler, I'm just boning up on my perl skills.

Bash equivalent
Thanks, Christopher. I know the frustration of not being easily able to do it the good old DOS way: ren *.csv *.txt.
In the Bash shell, you can say
for f in *.csv; do mv $f ${f%csv}txt; done
I suppose you could paramaterize that in a shell script something like
#!/bin/bash
for f in *.$1
do
echo "$f --> ${f%$1}$2"
mv $f ${f%$1}$2
done
Good old Unix/Bash. You can do anything if you're willing to type enough funny characters.
still alive.
Just to let you guys know, no, this project isn't dead, I've currently been working on a c++ port.
