Hi,
I need a script that will copy 360 files starting from run_1_00001.cbf to run_1_00360.cbf to a new directory while changing all of the files to include the word peak just prior to the file extension. For example run_1_00001.cbf changed to run_1_00001peak.cbf and placed in another directory.
how to use this? can use for rename all files in a folder?
