Full Discussion: Simple 'date' to 001 scheme script

With the shell in busybox you should be able to do something like:
Code:
cnt=1
for x in *.gif
do      base="${x%.gif}"
        echo mv "$x" "$(printf '%s_%04d.gif' "$base" $cnt)"
        cnt=$((cnt + 1))
done

If that shows you a set of mv commands that do what you need to do, remove the echo and run it again to actually rename the files.
