Nomino is a small set of Perl scripts for manipulating file names from the command line. It can help to normalize file names so that they contain only certain characters from a set, insert text at different positions in file names and quickly search file names for patterns.
Below are some examples of what you can do with it:
# Remove unwanted characters from a file name: $ normname "My Report (Final).PDF" My-Report-Final.pdf # Insert a date into the middle of file names: $ insname -p 6 _1970-01-01 trial?_result.csv trial1_1970-01-01_result.csv trial2_1970-01-01_result.csv trial3_1970-01-01_result.csv ... # Extract track name, artist name and song title from music files: $ searchname -d ',' '(\d+) - ([^-]+) - ([^-]+)' *.mp3 01,James Pants,Menehune Dance 02,Another Day,A Moment 03,Maybe Watson,Truberly Remix ...
Nomino is free software available under the GNU General Public License version 3 or later.
