[GLLUG] CLI renaming question

[J Neveau]

Well, I found the solution to my renaming issue of 100+ files being named

vactions!!!!!01.jpg   vactions!!!!!02  vactions!!!!!03     etc, etc

rename "s/[!]//g" *.jpg

And away went the vile exclamation points!


At this point, have no idea HOW it specifically worked.....but it did.
 I'll need
to do some more reading on the syntax of that "rename" command.

Thanks for all of the suggestions.
