Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Remove spaces from start of file names Post 302678741 by Don Cragun on Sunday 29th of July 2012 05:01:59 PM

If you have a list of the files you want renamed in a file named "list", the following script should work:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
IFS=""
while read old
do
        new=${old##*([-0-9 ])}
        new=${new/\[*\]/}
        nds=${new%.dir}
        if [ "${nds}.dir" == "$new" ]
        then
                suf=.dir
        else
                suf=
        fi
        new=$(printf "%s\n" "$nds"|tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]")
        mv "$old" "$new$suf"
done < list

Note that this assumes that there is no more than one occurrence of [...] in a line.

This seems like a pretty strange set of conversions???
