Description:

rn 1.0.2

A multiple renaming program for the console.
I started rn as a learning tool for my recently acquired Python 3
knowledge, and I really learned a lot programming it.
As it has become useful to me, I want to share it.
It was programmed using Python 3.4 in a computer running FreeBSD 10.1, and
tested in FreeBSD 10.1 and Windows XP. It should work unchanged in
GNU/Linux and OS X, too, but I have not tested it.
If you own or have access to a Mac, I would really appreciate it if you
run the test program in it and let me know the results. The same goes for any
GNU/Linux system. See the test section for details.

Installation
To install the program:
$ pip install rn

Documentation
To install the documentation you will have to download the package and untar it with your favorite program or through the console:
$ tar -xz -f rn-1.0.?.tar.gz
Now you will find, in different formats, the manual under the doc folder.
rn.1 is the manual in man format. If you are using a UNIX like system,
you can copy it to your man directory (as root) and access it anytime with
man rn.
As root:
gzip rn.1
cp rn.1.gz /usr/local/man/man1/
The path to your man pages may be different.

Features

Delete any number of characters from your selection of file names starting at the beginning, at the
end or in the middle.
Crop text from the files names: words, letters, from a word to the end, from the beginning to a letter or word…
Replace letter or words inside the names of the files.
Change the capitalization or case.
Add prefixes or suffixes.
Apply all the above to directory names or file extensions.

Testing
If you have downloaded the package (and not only install it with pip), you
will have a test folder containing two archives.
To run the test, make a copy of the executable rn as rn.py in the test
directory, change to the test directory and execute the script test :
$ ./test
You have to have pytest installed.
If some error raises, please, run the test again directing the output to a
file and e-mail it to me with any details you may find important.
$ ./test > test-results-file
If there were not errors and you are running a system different of FreeBSD or Windows XP, please let me know that the program works in your operating system, too.
