Have you ever needed to rename 100 files to include a numbered series? Or maybe edit a set of mp3s that include a bunch of junk text at the end or beginning of the file name?

Here’s a utility for you, 1-4a Rename is freeware and it’s a single executable that when launched provides a variety of ways to rename groups of files. It also includes an undo function. Here’s a small sample of what it can do:

• Capitalize the beginning letter of each word, or make all letters upper case or lower case
• Insert a set of text at the beginning of each file name
• Add a set of numbers to the beginning or end of file names that increment or decrement
• Replace a set of text with different text, or remove it completely (for example change “pol1″ to “policy1″
• Shorten file names to 64 characters
• Filter results to work with in a folder using wildcards * ?
• Restrict changes to file name, extension, or whole name

The list goes on. This is a must have utility for anyone who works with a multitude of files.
