Using BRU to rename/copy en masse?

[whitegh0st]

Hello,

What i'm trying to do is take an image, "image1.jpg" and copy/rename it multiple times using an excel form i have moved to .txt
It looks roughly like this:-

image1 | abcd100
image1 | abcd101
image1 | abcd102
image1 | abcd103
image1 | abcd104

Is this possible using BRU? It seems to have a problem using a single source file to create multiple copies?

Any feedback is appreciated!

Maybe this, viewtopic.php?p=7934#p7934.

Oh, wait, that's not going to copy an existing file.


Might look into the BRC (Bulk Rename Command) end of things & the /NODUP argument.
Maybe used in a batch file...

So as a start:

Code: Select all

C:\TMP\>brc32.exe /pattern:* /removename /insert:1234:1 /autonumber:100:1:S:-:10:4


Processing Folder C:\TMP\
Filename a         would be renamed to 1234-0100
Filename b         would be renamed to 1234-0101
Filename BRC32.exe would be renamed to 1234-0102.exe
Filename c         would be renamed to 1234-0103


Then integrate into a batch file, loop...
(That would take more thought...)
