Just a few GUI tools as well....<br />

<div>
Run this when you are in the directory with the files from the commandline:<br />
<br />
for i in `ls 1000_300*.jpg`; do NEWNAME=&quot;`echo $i |sed 's/_300_/_330_/'`&quot;; mv $i $NEWNAME; done<br />

</div>


<div>
For that you need sh.exe from <a href="http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/" rel="ugc">http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/</a>

Is there a way to change all the filenames in a Windows folder easier than renaming each one? &nbsp;Lets say I have a bunch of files that are 1000_300_001.jpg 1000_300_002.jpg etc. &nbsp;I want to change the 300 to 330. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I thought maybe that I go network in with a Mac and use the Linux terminal command somehow, but not sure. Any ideas for faster renaming?<br />
Thanks
