Man, this program handles the renaming of multiple file beautifully. I had some files on my Linux laptop that couldn't be because there was a character in the name that the filesystem didn't like. So, I copied them to my Windows machine and used FreeCommander to rename the whole batch in one go with no problems. Now the filesystem on my Linux machine is happy, and so am I. Biggrin
