for old in directory/photo*; do new=3D`echo $old | sed 's/photo_//g'`; =
mv -v $old $new; done
Would give you 1.jpg, 2.jpg...500.jpg. If you display those with Apache, =
try IndexOptions VersionSort which I think should display them in the =
correct order. If you really want 001, 002.. etc that's possible too, =
but harder:
for old in directory/photo*; do new=3D`echo $old | sed =
's/photo_//g;s/\.jpg//g' | xargs printf "%03d.jpg"`; mv -v $old $new; =
done
--=20
