mvr v2.0.1

mvr

mv with some regexp tricks

Usage

> mvr

  Regexp-powered file renamer, mv with some extra tricks

  Usage
  $ mvr <options> find replace

  Options
  --dry,     -d    Don't rename files
  --recurse, -r    Recursively search for files

Replacements use standard $1, $2, $3 with one extra feature. You can use $file in a replacement for easy access to the original file name without having to wrap the entire match in a capture.

Example

C:\OneDrive\Pictures\Camera Roll>mvr -d "^vine-(\d\d)(\d\d)(\d\d)" 20$4-$2-$3\$file
DRY RUN - no files will be moved
