Dear all, I've started using cygwin relatively recently, and I have cygutils 1.3.2-1 installed. This version of cygutils does not appear to include the rename utility: if, at a cygwin prompt, I type "rename", I receive the message, "bash: rename: command not found". My questions are: 1) Was the rename utility removed from cygutils at some point between version 1.2.6-1 and 1.3.2-1, or is my version of cygutils somehow corrupt? 2) If it was removed, why, and is there some other way I can obtain the rename utility under cygwin? (NB. please don't just suggest I use "for i in *; do mv ${i} ${i#foo}; done", etc. - I'm asking specifically for the rename *utility*, not a rename capability.)
