Hi guys,

I got certain files uploaded onto a server and I wish to batch rename them with a suffix,

For example, say I got 150 PDFs on the servers with names like PDF54654.pdf, PDF45646.pdf, PDF54654.pdf - I want each one of them to have a suffix like PDF54654 [clean].pdf, PDF45646 [clean].pdf, PDF54654 [clean].pdf and so on.

Is this possible?

Also, is it possible to accrue a file list out of an FTP program. As in the above case can I have a text file with the names, PDF54654.pdf, PDF45646.pdf, PDF54654.pdf on seperate lines.

Please let me know!
 
Only way I can think of is if you use a command line FTP client.

Log in and then do a 'ls', you will then get a list you can copy and paste into a text file and change names etc.
 
what i can think of is
you download to you pc all those files, select all (Ctrl+a) those files and right click > rename > then put "PDF [clean]" you will get "PDF [clean] (1).pfd" , "PDF [clean] (2).pfd" , "PDF [clean] (3).pfd" etc..
