Build Coverage Version Dependencies Downloads License

What rew does

  1. Reads values from standard input.
  2. Rewrites them according to a pattern.
  3. Prints results to standard output.

What rew does

Input values are assumed to be FS paths, however, rew is able to process any UTF-8 encoded text.

find -iname '*.jpeg' | rew 'img_{C}.{e|l|r:e}'

Rew is also distributed with two accompanying utilities (mvb and cpb) which move/copy files and directories, based on rew output.

find -iname '*.jpeg' | rew 'img_{C}.{e|l|r:e}' -d | mvb
