Great utility so I just donated.

I am using Bulk Rename Utility for several months now and it's great!
Just checked in to see if there is a new version and there is.
I just made a small donation. Good software needs support, I think.

I'm still missing a good help function, especially about the regular expressions but maybe it's included in the new version.
There are so many possibilities and I don't understand all yet.

Keep up the good work, Jim!

Hi Marcel,

in the BRU Help is a part for regular expressions
and a part with RegEx examples.

also >here< is a little overview about the regex syntax and key words.

Thanks Marcel (and Stefan!).

It's unlikely that the help file will ever included much more detail on Regular Expressions. RegExps are a huge subject area - the O'Reilly book "Mastering Regular Expressions" is 484 pages long! Your best bet for expressions is to look at the excellent postings made by other people in this forum, and also to search Google for examples. BRU only supports one element of Regular Expressions, the "replacement" facility, but it is still a very powerful tool.

A new release will be made soon, which includes some screen changes and a couple of other enhancements. Check the beta on the website for a preview.
