Sanefile is a quick and efficient tool that facilitates effortless renaming and cleaning of numerous filenames.
Sanefile is a software tool designed to simplify and speed up the process of altering a large number of filenames quickly. The inspiration behind the creation of Sanefile came from issues arising when extracting music files from CDs or downloading TV shows, resulting in a large number of filenames with numerous errors and inconsistencies. The solution? Sanefile.
Sanefile is a simple yet highly efficient tool, using the power of Tcl's rich regular expression abilities to perform its function. The users can take full advantage of regular expressions with ease. Unlike other software packages, Sanefile is not spyware, spam-ware, or a virus. It is purely a tool to streamline the process of renaming large numbers of files.
The potential of regular expressions is fully exploited by Sanefile- filter files by starting letter, for example, including every file with the letter A at the beginning of the file. Different expressions can be defined for distinct purposes, such as matching the text in the beginning of filenames or at the end, etc.
Sanefile offers a variety of expressions such as range indicators, repetition operators, and escape operators, enabling the user to create specific searches to filter filenames to their exact requirements. Expression examples include using ab* for multiple b's after an a, used to group expressions, etc.
A specific example of Sanefile's capabilities is through the expression "^Doors.*([A-Z][0-9]*).*.mp3$". Here Sanefile can filter filenames that begin with "Doors," have a letter followed by digits somewhere in the middle, and end in ".mp3."
In summary, Sanefile provides a user-friendly software package to efficiently and quickly alter a large number of filenames, through the use of powerful regular expressions, without the complicated nature of other software.
