Do you want to rename a number of files that begins with a specific name or string? I wrote this small Python script that does that. Of course, you can also do this with Bash or Powershell. I hope somebody might find it useful.
import os import sys from os import path parameters = sys.argv[1:] if len(parameters) == 0: print(f"usage: {sys.argv[0]} <startswith-string>") sys.exit(0) if len(parameters) > 0: for file in os.listdir(): if file.startswith(parameters[0]) and path.isfile(file): old_name = file new_name = file[len(parameters[0]):] print(f"Renaming {old_name} -> {new_name}") os.renames(old_name, new_name)
