Multi-Rename Tool Expansion Using Words

[Phred]

I'm fairly sure there's no such capability with TC's MRT for expanding codes or expressions using words rather than numbers, but could someone possibly disabuse me otherwise?

I'm thinking of a group of files, say:
I'm - One.txt
Thinking - Two.txt
Of - Three.txt
A - Four.txt
Group - Five.txt
...as the result of a rename.

Excel has long had the inbuilt and configurable option of adding sequences - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, etc, as well as Jan, Feb, Mar.. and 001, 002, 003 etc - but I don't believe we have it here in TC.
I can't think of a way of getting Excel to do it on TC's behalf.

Whether there's such a capability lurking within RegEx or not, I don't know.
And yes, I appreciate there's lots of languages..
Anyone?

You can do it without RegEx. Include a counter in the file mask and search and replace the counter with the value you want.
For example:

Code: Select all

Rename mask:   [N] - [C] -

Search for:    - 1 -|- 2 -|- 3 -|- 4 -|- 5 -|- 6 -|- 7 -|- 8 -|- 9 -|- 10 -
Replace with:  - One|- Two|- Three|- Four|- Five|- Six|- Seven|- Eight|- Nine|- Ten
