Removing characters from beginning of multiple files
Hi,
I have been searching how to do this but I can't seem to find how to do it. Hopefully someone can help.
I have multiplr files, 100's example 12345-zxys.213423.zyz.txt. I want to be able to take all these files and remove the first '12345-' from each of the files. '12345-' these characters are uniqe on each file but of the same length.
I would appreciate if someone can help.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Israr

NAME
speedometer - measure and display the rate of data across a network connection
SYNOPSIS
speedometer [options] tap [[-c] tap] ...
DESCRIPTION
Monitor network traffic or speed/progress of a file transfer. At least one tap option (-f, -rx, -tx) must be entered. Option -c starts a
new column, otherwise taps are piled vertically.
Note: before you use the program, satrt generating traffic by transferring files in/out e.g. with scp(1) in the network you're measuring.
OPTIONS

-f filename [size]
Display download speed with progress bar. This option must be used if directly following another file tap without an expected size
specified.

Interval in seconds. Examples: 5 or 0.25". Default is 1.
-p Use plain-text display (one tap only).
-rx iface
Display bytes received on network interface.
-tx iface
Display bytes transmitted on network interface.
-z Report zero size on files that don't exist instead of waiting for them to be created
