Example using rename:
To rename files by replacing a part of the filename, you can use:
rename 's/old/new/' *.txtThis command will replace "old" with "new" in all .txt filenames in the current directory.
Note:
The syntax for the rename command may vary between different Linux distributions, so make sure to check the documentation for your specific version if needed.
