Cool script. Thanks for sharing. I would also suggest pyRenamer in the repositories. It has a little more options and provides a preview of the new names.

Nice script. Although I haven’t a clue how to use it & cant find the readme. Tried an experiment and it removed about 100 files. Can’t undo either.
