Install the Linux rename utility
Authored by: EddEdmondson on Jul 12, '05 11:47:50AM
There is no single 'Linux rename utility' unfortunately - so be careful that this is the one you expect. The one installed in Debian is a perl script with the syntax
rename [-v] [-n] [-f] perlexpr [files]
The one installed by RedHat (or whatever it's become nowadays) is different - it's a C program, and is the same one referred to in the hint. It's syntax is
rename from to files
