How to remove numbers from filename
Hi all, Can I edit this script: Code:
find . -type f | while read i;do [ "$i" != "${i//abc/}" ] && mv "$i" "${i//abc/}" ;done
so that it will not only take out abc from the filename but also take out any numbers [Date, as in the year i.e. 2009 or any other year] that might be in the filename as well. An example would be, HTML Code:
Input: filename abc 2009.mov Output: filename.mov HTML Code:
Input: filename.abc.2009.mov Output: filename.mov Regards
