Hi,
I have a large series of directories and subdirectories with many jpgs in them. I need to do two things:
- Create a copy of each jpg found within it's own subdirectory
- Rename this copied jpg such that apple.jpg becomes apple_m.jpg
I have tried to run the following commands in order:
//this creates a copy of every jpg found and appends '_m' to the end of it
find . -name '*.jpg' -execdir cp {} {}_m \;
//now again find everything with 'jpg_m' at the end and rename it as filename_m.jpg
find . -name '*.jpg_m' -execdir rename -v 's/\.jpg_m/_m\.jpg/' {} \;
However the 2nd command does'nt seem to work, can someone please explain what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Adi
