rename files
 

If i have a directory of files, e.g.

tree.jpg
dog.jpg
dog2.jpg
trail.jpg
bigview.jpg

how do i rename them such that each prefix is appended with "-1024", like so:

tree-1024.jpg
dog-1024.jpg
dog2-1024.jpg
trail-1024.jpg
bigview-1024.jpg

I've played with the rename command, but can't come up with anything that works.

Use,

krename

Application, comes with KDE and may need to be installed

Super useful.

Can be used as a plugin for digicam,

this is super useful too!

cool, thanks for the tip.
i didn't know about krename.
it works well.

Can someone tell me how can we do this using shell script???

rename .jpg -1024.jpg *.jpg

No script involved.

Great!!!!
Thanks alot.
