PrefixSuffix: Batch Renaming files on Ubuntu Linux
I was searching for an application to let me rename files on Ubuntu. Windows makes it easy… You just need to select the bunch of file and press F2 to batch rename them. I am using PrefixSuffix application for the same purpose on Linux.
Do let me know if you find a better alternative!

krename is a much smaller download so I’m trying that (I already have the KDE core installed)

Hahaha…
Biiiiiiiiiiig THX for posting this tip. Was damn useful…
And wish to share an experience:
create a new bash-script with the following command line in your Nautilus scripts home (~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/):
#!/bin/sh
prefixsuffix $@
…then save it to Rename.sh and chmod it to 700.
Now you can to batch rename from Nautilus at current prompt position.
Enjoy.
