Hi,
Anyone got a good bash incantation for removing apostrophes in lots of file-
names? I assume that it could be done with a combination of mv (or rename)
and grep, but maybe there is a better way.
I've just ripped a collection of audio CDs to ogg format for transfer to my
audio player, but (like most of these devices) it has a FAT32 file-system,
which can't cope with apostrophes.
Last time I did this, I changed them in the file manager, but this time I've
got about 150 tracks, most of which use apostrophes to delineate the title of
the piece.
There are 11 folders, so the script or command needs to be recursive.
