EXAMPLES
Given the files foo1, ..., foo9, foo10, ..., foo278, the commands

rename foo foo0 foo??
will turn them into foo001, ..., foo009, foo010, ..., foo278. And

WARNING
The renaming has no safeguards. If the user has permission to rewrite file names, the command will perform the action without any ques-
tions. For example, the result can be quite drastic when the command is run as root in the /lib directory. Always make a backup before
running the command, unless you truly know what you are doing.

The rename command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
