Subject: Changing file names with "--" to "-"
Date: Sun, 21 Feb 2021 04:06:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <trinity-cd206881-a2d4-4a2d-b47e-57feda967505-1613876784264@3c-app-mailcom-bs01> (raw)


I have a lot of files and want to change "--" to "-".

Am using

rename 's/--/-/g' *

on the current directory.

How can I recursively go through all sub directories and do the
changes for files only.
