Hello,
I want to rename multiple files at a time and I don't know how to do it.
I have various ".mp3" files, like "band name - music name.mp3" and I want to remove the "band name" from all files.
Anybody knows how to do it using shell script or sed or even perl?

shtool-move
SHTOOL-MOVE.TMP(1) GNU Portable Shell Tool SHTOOL-MOVE.TMP(1)NAME
shtool-move - GNU shtool enhanced mv(1) replacement
SYNOPSIS
shtool move [-v|--verbose] [-t|--trace] [-e|--expand] [-p|--preserve] src-file dst-file
DESCRIPTION
This is a mv(1) style command enhanced with the ability to rename multiple files in a single operation and the ability to detect and not
touch existing equal destinations files, thus preserving timestamps.
OPTIONS
The following command line options are available.
-v, --verbose
Display some processing information.
-t, --trace
Enable the output of the essential shell commands which are executed.
-e, --expand
Expand asterisk in src to be used as ""%"n" (where n is 1,2,...) in dst-file. This is useful for renaming multiple files at once.
-p, --preserve
Detect src-file and dst-file having equal content and not touch existing destination files, thus perserving timestamps. This is useful
for applications that monitor timestamps, i.e. suppress make(1L) repeating actions for unchanged files.
EXAMPLE
# shell script
shtool move -v -e '*.txt' %1.asc
# Makefile
scanner.c: scanner.l
lex scanner.l
shtool move -t -p lex.yy.c scanner.c
HISTORY
The GNU shtool move command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 1999 for GNU shtool.
SEE ALSO shtool(1), mv(1), make(1).
