Find all images, append unique prefix to name and move to different directory
Hi,
I have a directory with Multiple subdirectories and 1000s of pictures (jpg) in each directory. The problem is that each directory has a 001.jpg in them. I want to append a unique name (the directory_name)would be fine. and then move them to one main backup directory once they have been renamed.
I used the find command below on a test dir but it blew away duplicate names. ---------- Post updated at 01:37 PM ---------- Previous update was at 12:38 PM ----------
found the solution...
[CODE]rename -v 's/(.*)\/(.*)/$1_$2/;' */*
renames all the files in each directory with the directoryname_filename then moves them to the parent folder.

tmpfile
TMPFILE(3) Linux Programmer's Manual TMPFILE(3)NAME
tmpfile - create a temporary file
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
FILE *tmpfile (void);
DESCRIPTION
The tmpfile() function generates a unique temporary filename. The temporary file is then opened in binary read/write (w+b) mode. The file
will be automatically deleted when it is closed or the program terminates normally.
RETURN VALUE
The tmpfile() function returns a stream descriptor, or NULL if a unique filename cannot be generated or the unique file cannot be opened.
In the latter case, errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
EACCES Search permission denied for directory in file's path prefix.
EEXIST Unable to generate a unique filename.
EMFILE Too many file descriptors in use by the process.
ENFILE Too many files open in the system.
ENOSPC There was no room in the directory to add the new filename.
EROFS Read-only filesystem.
EINTR The call was interrupted by a signal.
CONFORMING TO
SVID 3, POSIX, BSD 4.3, ISO 9899, SUSv2
NOTES
An error message may be written to stdout if the stream cannot be opened.
The standard does not specify the directory that tmpfile() will use. Glibc will try the path prefix P_tmpdir defined in <stdio.h>, and if
that fails the directory /tmp.
