Thanks for script, Is it OS specific? Are there pre-requisites? Install python etc? Thanks James On Sat, Nov 21, 2009 at 10:20 AM, saidimu apale <saidimu@gmail.com> wrote:
I needed to quickly and painlessly rename some files by replacing spaces with underscores (_). Here's a quick and dirty python script that did it for me. I ran it from the python interpreter command-line (I didn't save the script to a file... lazy).
----- begin script----- import os
for file in os.listdir(os.getcwd()): newname = "_".join(file.split()) os.rename(file, newname)
----- end script------
It's a quick and dirty script so there's no error-handling of *any* sort. But that's trivial to add if you needed it.
