Under the [+-] button on the [N] Name line in the Multi-Rename Tool there are four masks ( [L] [F] [n]) that I can't seem to get to work. I think I'm doing something wrong or not understanding these masks' purpose. Could someone please provide some examples of the proper syntax with these masks?
Thanks.
Bob

MRT: how to use [L] [U]
Hi Bob,
have you tried to press the F1-key while in that rename dialog?
Still questions?
FROM:
TOTALCMD.EXE
TO:
TOTALCmd.exe
Use:
[N1-6][L][N7-8]
FROM:
tcmatch.dll
tcmatch.exe
tcmatch.ini
TO:
TCMATCH.DLL
TCMATCH.EXE
TCMATCH.INI
use:
[ U][N]
(I added a space before the U because that MRT-syntax is the same as used here in the forum for underlining)
Help wrote:
[N2-5] Characters 2 to 5 from the old name
[L] All characters after this position in lowercase
[ U] All characters after this position in uppercase
(press the F1-key in rename dialog to read more)
Makes more sense with a few files with same name schema:
FROM:
2 UNLIMITED - Let the beat control your body.mp3
2 UNLIMITED - Megamix.mp3
2 UNLIMITED - No limit.mp3
2 UNLIMITED - The Real Thing.mp3
2 UNLIMITED - Twitlight Zone.mp3
TO:
2 Unlimited - Let the beat control your body.mp3
2 Unlimited - Megamix.mp3
2 Unlimited - No limit.mp3
2 Unlimited - The Real Thing.mp3
2 Unlimited - Twitlight Zone.mp3
Use:
[N1-3][L][N4-11][n][N12-255]
Read: give me first three, then lower case all until sign 11, after that we want to keep the origin case again.
