Short: Enhanced Rename replacement Author: Constantinos Nicolakakis (cnicol@compulink.gr) Uploader: Constantinos Nicolakakis (cnicol@compulink.gr) Version: 2.930 Type: util/cli Requires: AmigaOS 2.0 Replaces: util/cli/SRename.lha SRename is an advanced Rename CLI command. Features include: - 57 CLI options - Compatible with the OS Rename command - Easy to use command interface - Total control over recursion - Wildcard and multiple filename support - Selector - Action keyword separation that allows building specialized functions - Can perform intelligent renumbering with automatic checking for filename clashes - Unlimited number-basename format support for renumbering - Supports long filenames on filesystems that allow them - Can also perform numbering and can modify filename comments Changes in this version: - Added numbering after a user's request. It is performed by using a hash (#) followed by an unsigned integer as an argument with TO or INSERT. - Added the SELECTED option to report which filenames or comments will be selected for renaming according to the keywords given. It is not guaranteed that the selected filenames will be changed. - Added the SIMULATE option to show what the renamed filenames will look like. No actual renaming is done. Note that the results will not be entirely accurate because as no real renaming is done, the filesystem's effect on the filenames will not be shown. - Optimized the output by not displaying at all filenames that will not be renamed because they don't match the selector or other criteria, and also made the output more readable by printing empty lines between directories. - Allowed the usage of the CONV8+3 action together with TO or DELETE. - Changed the name of NODIROUT (NDO) to NOPROGRESS (NOP). When this option is used now the paths of the renamed files are also displayed, instead of just the usual rename message. - Added a warning message that any selectors will be ignored if no matching action is given and a destination path is given. - The SRename documentation is from now only in HTML format. ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 2042 899 55.9% 20-May-00 20:04:04 ButtonBank&StartMenu.doc 2957 2024 31.5% 20-May-00 20:04:04 ButtonBank&StartMenu.doc.info 25148 16194 35.6% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename 123492 31005 74.8% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename manual.html 2948 2012 31.7% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename manual.html.info 24936 16084 35.4% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename020 9896 1636 83.4% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename_buttonbank 3478 678 80.5% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename_buttonbank.info 9272 1439 84.4% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename_startmenu 3478 677 80.5% 20-May-00 20:04:04 SRename_startmenu.info 36931 36931 0.0% 20-May-00 20:04:04 Usage_with_DOpus.png 3484 2448 29.7% 20-May-00 20:04:04 Usage_with_DOpus.png.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 248062 112027 54.8% 12-Jun-100 16:15:48 12 files
