Sanefile Description

Sanefile is a tool to easily and quickly clean and change a large number of filenames. Sanefile is a tool to easily and quickly clean and change a large number of filenames. The idea started when I started “ripping” my own CD’s and the filenames were all different and full of errors. When I started getting TV downloads from other sources, the issue became a problem.I had to find an efficient way of changing a large number of filenames. Sanefile was the result. Simple, single-purpose and very efficient at it with total exploitation of Tcl’s rich Regular Expression capabilities.What this tool is NOT: spy-ware, spam-ware, virus or any other crappy stuff.With Sanefile, you can use the full power of regular expressions. For instance, imagine that you want to filter off all files starting with a A. To use the just A would remove from the list all the files with A in it. Not the solution. If you use ^A (Carat and A) it means that it has to match A only at the beginning of the text.More examples:^text matches "text" in the beginning of the nametext$ matches "text" in the END of the filename. matches ANY character range indicator as in: matches ONE letter "a" to "z" matches ONE letter "a" to "z" and "A" to "Z" matches ONE digit (caret) matches if NOT in the range as in: matches if it is NOT a digit* operator for repetition.* matches everything* multiple digits* a bunch of everything BUT a letter or digitescape operatort tab( when you want to match (. when you want to match .when you want to match (RARELY DONE! Think why.)() used to group expressionsab* a followed with multiple b's(ab)* multiple ab (different from above!)^Doors.*(*).*.mp3$ Matches all files starting with Doors, have somewhere in the middle a letter followed by digits and end in ".mp3"
