Question

How to rename multiple files?

Answer

rename "regex-rule" files

Example

rename "s/WMV$/wmv/" *

That is, change "WMV" extension to "wmv".

You can replace '/' with a different character too, e.g. rename "s|WMV$|wmv|" * .

The option -n (--no-act) can be used to test what files would be renamed.
