DESCRIPTION "rename" renames the filenames supplied according to the rule specified as the first argument. The perlexpr argument is a Perl expression which is expected to modify the $_ string in Perl for at least some of the filenames specified. If a given filename is not modified by the expression, it will not be renamed. If no filenames are given on the command line, filenames will be read via standard input.
For example, to rename all files matching "*.bak" to strip the extension, you might say
rename 's//.bak$//' *.bak
To translate uppercase names to lower, you’d use
rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' *
OPTIONS -v, --verbose Verbose: print names of files successfully renamed.
-n, --no-act No Action: show what files would have been renamed.
-f, --force Force: overwrite existing files.
ENVIRONMENT No environment variables are used.

DIAGNOSTICS If you give an invalid Perl expression you’ll get a syntax error.
BUGS The original "rename" did not check for the existence of target filenames, so had to be used with care. I hope I’ve fixed that (Robin Barker).

rename 是用来批量修改文件名称的命令
上面解释中有两个例子:
For example, to rename all files matching "*.bak" to strip the extension, you might say rename 's//.bak$//' *.bak To translate uppercase names to lower, you’d use
rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' *
例子 rename 's//.bak$//' *.bak 是将所有文件的.bak扩展去除
例子 rename 'y/A-Z/a-z/' * 是将所有文件中的大写字母转为小写
下面的例子是修改单个文件名称方法:
将文件disikexing重命名为php
shawn@shawn-laptop:/var/www$ ls disikexing index.html index.lighttpd.html test.php
