On linux, using rename
to rename multiple directories. I want to rename directories starting with higher case characters to lower case and add a special character, let's say _
before the first letter.
For example I want to rename Myfile
to _myfile
The best I came up with so far is :
rename -n 'y/[A-Z]/[a-z]' *
But when I add my character to this regular expression I get the following error :
rename -n 'y/[A-Z]/_[a-z]' *
Replacement list is longer than search list at (eval 90) line 1.
How can I add the special character to the regular expression?
