 Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2012 2:21 pm Post subject: Multi rename tool - help with advanced functions |
 |
|
Example of what I want, these are the files:
| Code: | 01 The Balkans.mp3
02 Your Majesty.mp3
03 I'll Hae To Cut My Way To Your Heart.mp3
04 If A Stranger Calls You.mp3
05 Joy.mp3 |
I want to rename them to
| Code: | 01 - The Balkans.mp3
02 - Your Majesty.mp3
03 - I'll Hae To Cut My Way To Your Heart.mp3
04 - If A Stranger Calls You.mp3
05 - Joy.mp3 |
I tried with regexp, but don't know how it functions inside TC : / any help? |

Enter that as rename mask for the file name. Might look like gibberish, but it's quite logical if you start to fiddle with the range button i think you'll get how it works. |

| Thank you. I made huge mistake by trying to work it through "Search & Replace" dialog, not "Rename mask". So, those placeholders are only for mask dialog, for S&R is RegEx? I tried via RegEx in "Search & Replace", but coulnd't do it, is there a way? I'm asking out of curiosity, to see what power I have with this. |

I'm sure it can be done with regex and search and replace as well, but my regex skills are nonexistent 
Match first space, replace by " - "
Sometime like that probably. |
