Hello, I realized I cannot come up with a simple solution for the following. I want to rename all the files whose names end with _g_b to just _g, e.g. hello_g_b should be renamed to hello_g. I simply don't know an easy way. [the opposite way is simple: for(i in *_g) mv $i $i^_b ] I only think about so complicated ways like
for(i in *_g_b) { s = `{sam -d <<EOF <{echo $i} >[2] /dev/null 1s/(.+)_g/\1 p EOF } mv $i $s } which describes my idea, but doesn't work, actually. (btw. how can one correct it?) Thanks Ruda
