Descrizione
I read that this utility would allow renaming multiple files with regular expressions. There was a checkbox to exclude folders, so I thought if I unchecked that it would include folders. Apparently my expectation of "include folders" doesn't match how the utility works.
I have a lot of files in the form:
2019\02\05\foo.html2020\04\03\bar.html
I want to rename them to the form:
@2019-02-05-foo.html@2020-04-03-bar.html
I figured I would match some regex (\d\d\d\d)\\(\d\d)\\(\d\d)\\(.+)\.html and rename that to @$1-$2-$3-$4.html. It seemed straightforward to me. Looks like the utility can't handle it, though; apparently it only looks at the filename.
You might make this shortcoming explicit in the documentation.
