Bulk Rename Utility

Hi there,
I have thousands of files that i need to rename. They are in .txt format. I want the first line of the content of the file as title of the txt file. Plz help

Example: I have poems in text (.txt) files but names are not correct. I want the first line of the content as the title of the txt files.
Plz let me know. Thanks in advance......

Hi, it is not possible with BRU as BRU cannot open the file and check for its content. I think you will need to create and use Powershell script for that.

pseudo-code

Code: Select all

dir /b     file* > xxx
head -1 -q file* > yyy
paste  xxx yyy  "-d|"  >  zzz


Then use apply strings from an external file to my new file names
