I have lots of files with the following filename convention.
"Story Title - Author Name - Word Count". It's the slush pile for a magazine I edit, if anyone is interested. I want to swap the Author Name with the Story Title without moving the Word Count from the end. I've just spent a fair bit of time fiddling with regular expressions to no avail. Remove Pattern makes it possible to remove "#...." from each file, but there seems no way to move it back to the end, after reversing the parts each side of the first " - ". Is there is a way of doing what I need in a single stage? |

Forget it. I finally worked it out for myself. :) I did a replace with Regular Expression. (.*) - (.*) - (.*) \2 - \1 - \3 Embarrassingly easy now I look at it. :D |
