Re: Global Extension Renaming

[iTools List <itools@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We're basically cleaning up another person's WebCatalog code and want
everything to be consistent.

I ended up using Jason Tyler's perl script and it renamed all 4,000 images
in under 10 seconds.  Thanks Jason, and everyone else who gave suggestions.

Now I can have lunch today!
