Often you need to rename a set of files - it perform a search and replace inside filenames.
Using TextPipe this is a cinch!
1. Use DOS cmd.exe to generate a filename list from the starting folder, using
dir /b /s *.* > filenamelist.txt
in your starting folder to generate a list of files to rename.
Then drag and drop that file into TextPipe, using the attached filter.
2. Modify Step 7 of the filter to adjust the search/replace.
3. Run TextPipe (F9), and then double-click on the resulting .BAT output file.
