Locating a string and copying it to the beginning of a dir

[cosmicmonolith]

I have a bunch of directories like this

Some_random_text-SHA056-other_text-end
meaningless_words__strung_together-(SHA105)-More_words-WORD
Another_Folder_With_Files_In_It-SHA006-2011-FOLDER

The common factor is they all have SHA[0-9][0-9][0-9] in them somewhere.

Is it possible to use regex to locate the string beginning with SHA, and copy the following three digits to the start of the directory (and then use add/replace to enclose in brackets)? The end result would look like this:

[056] Some_random_text-SHA056-other_text-end
[105] meaningless_words__strung_together-(SHA105)-More_words-WORD
[006] Another_Folder_With_Files_In_It-SHA006-2011-FOLDER

i think i got it

Code: Select all

MATCH: ^(.*\w[SHA])(\d{3})(.*)$
REPLACE: [\2] \1\2\3
