Renaming Files - Is this Possible

[tim_crouse]

Sometimes when I download files from the web such as PDFs the file names may be in a form like:

xxxx_xxxx_xxx.pdf

Would it be possible to have a script that renames files to something like:

Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxx.pdf

Best Regards

This will do it for all selected files:

Code: Select all

#130; #138;

I apologize for my ignorance but I have no idea how the response provided would rename files as title case and replace underscores with spaces.

Code: Select all
#130; #138;

I tried the attachment code pasted into the run script dialog on a couple of selected files but it had no effect.

Also is there a way to assign a short cut to a script or select load a script then right click a file or selection and thru a short cut menu apply script?

I must be missing something because with all the attention you have given this app I cannot believe code has to be dropped into a dialog to run it.

Thanks in Advance

#130 = File | Rename Special | _ to Spaces
#138 = File | Rename Special | A* A*.aaa

Works fine here.

All menu commands have an ID. To display them:
Help > Command IDs on menu

Don't forget the :: on the command line (addess bar) to tell the system that this is a script.

1. Select your files
2. In address bar (Ctrl+Shift+F12 if not showed), type:

   Code: Select all

   ::#130; #138

3. Make it an icon in the button bar if you want to use it again

Tested: works fine
