Some code just 'echo's the rename commands to be run. The code-author's EE id usually follows each code block. (Some of what fails: '|' after 'if' or 'call' statement '&' after 'if', '&' after 'set' as in:set x=y&if %x%=y echo y the set doesn't happen until AFTER a line break! Weird language.) Note: to echo the '&' you must 'echo ^&' See "Can you type more than one command at one command prompt?". Some code I've condensed using the '&' sign (for NT/2k/XP) or the '|' sign (for 98) which often allow use of multiple commands on one line. (see "Please let me know" under 'Remove a prefix' below).
