Rename folders based on a text file

Postby btattz » Wed May 22, 2019 11:23 pm

Hello,

I am trying to rename a list of folders based on a text file I have created in the format required (Track001|Headlong). This only appears to work with files. Does BRU have the ability to do this with folders?

Should work.
I gave it a *simple* test, & it worked.
(Something more complex, say with drive:\path\path\, I did not test.)

12:Filter -> Folders
Drag (or point to) \test\ directory
Actions -> Import Rename-Pairs... ---> rename-pairs-dir.txt

rename-pairs-dir.txt:
Code: Select all
11|111
22|222
33|333


(test, 11, 22, & 33 are all directories)
Code: Select all
test
  |--->11
  |--->22
  |--->33


Results:

Code: Select all
test
  |--->111
  |--->222
  |--->333
