How to split file name into folder\file

Postby Soulreaver » Fri Jul 16, 2010 3:04 pm

Hello,

this is my first time using BRU.

I'm trying to split the file name into two parts, the first should be the folder where the second part are as file.

For example:
the file name is 012345678.1
and now I'm trying to split this file into a folder (first 5 digits - 01234) and file (rest digits - 5678.1) like this
01234/5678.1

I see the different way to add the folder to the file name is possible, but this is not what I'm looking for.

Appriciate your support.

Hello Soulreaver, welcome.

I don't know how to do this with BRU.

Usual one would simple insert an "\" sign into the file name, like
Add(7)
Insert \
at Pos. 6

But BRU sees this as an illegal character and don't do the renaming.
