I have a huge collection of HTML files. They have their own file names with
Code:
html
extension. I want to rename each of these files with continuous numbers starting from
Code:
1.html
till the last count of files. Simply it means that if there are three files like this
Code:
abc.html
cdfhg.html
rmbd.html
then they should be renamed as
Code:
1.html
2.html
3.html
where
Code:
1.html is abc.html
2.html is cdfhg.html
3.html is rmbd.html
But even after changing these file names I need to keep track of the original file names i.e. which one is abc.html? That is after renaming;
Code:
1.html
is
Code:
abc.html
. For that I have used
Code:
ls -l
command and redirected my list of files to a temporary file previously (before writing this script). This is simply to do some mapping so that my C program can relate file names from this temporary file list with the new names which are now as continuous numbers. Hence, the file order is important.
This is what I have tried so far but it does not work:
Code:
for i in `ls -1`;do
mv $i `echo $i | awk '{c++} {print c'}`.html;
done
I have used the same
Code:
ls -1
command here in this script too so that mapping remains the same.
