Short: Rename lots of frames with dopus/diskmaster like util. Author: iron-iq@dds.nl (D.Murray) Uploader: iron-iq dds nl (D Murray) Type: util/misc Architecture: m68k-amigaos This program is save in my opinion, but to prevent nasty things, I will NOT be responsible for anything that might happen due to use of this program or any related file or document. p.s. this still stands if there are some spelling errors in the above, the program and this readme file are created within the hour I call it OWNYOURRISK-ware. use: NRename [] destformat = []#minw[] minw = minimal width of number [0..9] seperator = a character after which your relevant number will be Example your files are named: ozon122.jpg ozon123.jpg ozon124.jpg ozon125.jpg ozon126.jpg ozon127.jpg ozon128.jpg and you want them to be ozon_jpg.122 .. ozon_jpg.128 You do NRename ozon_jpg.#3 where filename can be %s or something like this in diskmaster ( you have to know how to config these programs of course :) ) PROBLEM 1: if you have frames like this : ozon1_122.jpg ozon1_123.jpg ozon1_124.jpg ozon1_125.jpg ozon1_126.jpg ozon1_127.jpg ozon1_128.jpg and you want them to be ozon_jpg.122 .. ozon_jpg.128 And you do NRename ozon_jpg.#3 you wil have wrong results namely ozon_jpg.1 .. ozon_jpg.1 and this cannot be because the names are the same. misery misery misery misery misery misery or not !?!?!? NO, the solution is there or here . use a seperator, a what, a seperator !!!! what is this. this is a vague something which can be used to solve this problem. Example , use this !! And you do NRename ozon_jpg.#3 _ now the source filename is scanned till a _ and only after this seperator the count-number 122..128 is found, and the result will indeed be ozon_jpg.122 .. ozon_jpg.128 PROBLEM 2: You got zilion of frames to rename, and it takes diskmaster ages to rename all the frames, this is partly due to the fact that it loads nrename every time from disk. solution 1 : resident c:nrename FORCE solution 2 : copy nrename to ram: ( don't leave the original in a other path like c: and make sure a path points to your bits and bytes over there) PROBLEM 3: your files are named abcd.00001 etc. and you want to lose some zero's solution: Still a wacky one, read below. Lose one zero at a time by making the seperator a 0 b.v. srename %s abcd.#3 0 Please E-mail bug reports, and let me know you are there.
