It sounds like you want to use a C-style loop, or else do some CRAZY
hoop-jumping:
for (my $i = 0; $i < @rename; $i += 2) {
my ($first, $second) = @rename[$i, $i+1];
# ...
}
# or:
my $i = 0;
for (@rename) {
if ($i++ & 1) {
# odd element ($rename[1], $rename[3], ...)
}
else {
# even element ($rename[0], $rename[2], ...)
}
}
