Thread: Mass Rename - fix this script please

hi

me mass rename? need replace brackets nothing. , have 0 experience scripts. found 1 , kind of edited it, cannot work right. here:

left bracket:

code:

> in *;  > x=$( echo $i | grep '(' | sed 's/(/\/g' );  > if [ -n "$x" ];  > mv $i $x;  > fi;  > done;

for right bracket:

code:

> in *.html;  > x=$( echo $i | grep ')' | sed 's/)/\-/g' );  > if [ -n "$x" ];  > mv $i $x;  > fi;  > done;
