- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 1.png
- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 2.png
- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 3.png
- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 4.png
Solution
simply run cd src/images && ffw or with the source (-s) flag ffw -s ./src/images
- src/images/le_fichier_galere_a_renommer_1.png
- src/images/le_fichier_galere_a_renommer_2.png
- src/images/le_fichier_galere_a_renommer_3.png
- src/images/le_fichier_galere_a_renommer_4.png
Problem
Say that you received crappy png named files alongside files you do not wish to rename
- src/images/mon fichier custom.jeanclaudevandamn
- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 1.png
- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 2.png
- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 3.png
- src/images/Le fichier galère à renommer 4.png
Solution
Add -e=[.your_extension1,.your_extension2]
simply run cd src/images && ffw -e=.png or ffw -s ./src/images -e=.png
- src/images/mon fichier custom.jeanclaudevandamn
- src/images/le_fichier_galere_a_renommer_1.png
- src/images/le_fichier_galere_a_renommer_2.png
- src/images/le_fichier_galere_a_renommer_3.png
