for old_name in `ls -l path_to_dir/*jpg`
do
new_name=`awk -F"-" 'BEGIN { OFS="-"} {$3=toupper($3);print $0}' $old_name`
mv $old_name $new_name
done
This has some errors in that awk line. Firstly, it's attempting to process the JPG file itself rather than the file name.
Also, using $3 sometimes matches more than the 4 letter code (where there is no suffix).
Perhaps try:
Code:
for i in *.jpg
do
eval $(echo $i|awk '{printf "mv %s %s\n", $0,\
substr($0,1,11) toupper(substr($0,12,4)) substr($0,16)}')
done

Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitLvalueSuUser(Contributed Perl DocPerl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitLvalueSubstr(3pm)NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitLvalueSubstr - Use 4-argument "substr" instead of writing "substr($foo, 2, 6) = $bar".
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
Conway discourages the use of "substr()" as an lvalue, instead recommending that the 4-argument version of "substr()" be used instead.
substr($something, 1, 2) = $newvalue; # not ok
substr($something, 1, 2, $newvalue); # ok
The four-argument form of "substr()" was introduced in Perl 5.005. This policy does not report violations on code which explicitly
specifies an earlier version of Perl (e.g. "use 5.004;").
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
SEE ALSO
"substr" in perlfunc (or "perldoc -f substr").
