If you like xargs you may love GNU Parallel: http://pi.dk/1
|
|
|
|
With GNU Parallel (http://pi.dk/0) you can do:
|
|
ls | grep jpeg | parallel mv {} {.}.jpg
|
|
|
|
Watch the intro video for GNU Parallel: http://pi.dk/1

|
If your input file names are generated by users, you need to deal with
|
|
surprising file names containing space, ', or " in the filename.

@jaylyerly @stevenf xargs will bite you if file names contain
|
|
space http://pi.dk/5. Use GNU Parallel instead: http://pi.dk/0
