How to replace the end of a file name

I have a seriously dumb question...
I have a row of thousands of file names (top-down, row a), these names are, for example, "photo-1.jpg" and I need to change the .jpg to .nef. How can I accomplish this?
thanks!!

Or just use this 'Find Replace in Selection' Automator Service (Dropbox download) without having to fuss about taking columns out to another app, fiddling with them there, and bring them back in.
It is just a short AppleScript that, after a quick installation, will look like this in your menu:
Select the cells where you want to make the replacement, choose 'Find Replace in Selection' from the menu, and enter the find-replace values when prompted. In your case you will see something like this:
Hit OK and you're done.
One-time installation is just a doubleclick on the .workflow package.
Depending on your settings you may have to go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy and click 'Open Anyway'.
'Install' simply moves the script to your Library > Services folder so it will show up in your Numbers menu. It doesn't do anything to the innards of your computer. If you want, you can check out the script first by choosing 'Open with Automator'.
Since this (obviously) changes values in your document you might want to test it first to make sure it is working as you want.
If you need to get rid of it then in Finder hold down the option key, choose Go in the menu and navigate to Library > Services, where you can trash it the way you would any other file or package in Finder.

Edit: use jpg and nef rather than .jpg and .nef.

BUG: Extra characters at the end of attachment file names

I received complaints that my attachments didn't open on the PC's of the recipients. After I saw the messages I noticed there were extra characters at the end of their file names. That's why they wouldn't open. When I looked into my sent mail folder it was there as well. The addition took place when I sent the mail, while composing everything looked fine. It took me a while to realize the pattern. There was one extra for every non-ASCII character in the file name.
Apparently Mail.app is using two different libraries. The other one counts the non-ASCII characters as two while the other doesn't. I don't know whether Finder still uses MacRoman or Unicode, but this seems to relate to double-byte characters.
The short term solution is to use only ASCII for file names, but that's not what OS X is all about.

The class files are broken. Recompile them. If you're uploading them, doublecheck if the FTP program used doesn't do mad things with binary files.

How to replace the string in a file

Hi, I have a file which contains the following data
File.dat
<file>
<filenum>
W10
</filenum>
<hello>Heading </hello>
</file>
I need to replace the contents of file.dat
database sequence value (for example xx_seq.nextval)
Can some one please tell me how to search this <filenum>
W10</filenum>
and replace this with xx_seq.nextval
and write the entire contents of the file to new file
I am doing some thing like this
suppose if my database value returns 11 from the above sequence then
the output should be in file2.dat as
<file>
<filenum>
11</filenum>
<hello>Heading </hello>
</file>
declare f_in utl_file.file_type;
s_in varchar2(10000);
string1 varchar2(32000);
x number;
begin
f_in := utl_file.fopen('SAMPLEDIR','input.txt','R');
f_in1 := utl_file.fopen('SAMPLEDIR','input1.txt','W');
select xx_seq.nextval into x from dual;
loop
begin utl_file.get_line(f_in,s_in);
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
EXIT;
string1:= string1 || s_in;
utl_file.put_line( (f_in1,s_in);
end;
end loop;
utl_file.fclose(f_in);
end;
In this case it is reading and writing as it is, but unable to replace the sequence value
Can some one please tell me how to do using replace function
Thanks

Sender File adapter - DataTime stamp at the end of aarchived file name

Hello,
I am archiving the file once PI file sender adapter picks the file from source directory.
The file is archived in the archive directory as <Date-Time-SSS_>FileName.
I need to append the value <Date-Time-SSS_> after the file name.
So archived file looks like FileName_<Date-Time-SSS>
How can I achieve this? Appreciate your help for valuable suggestions.
Thanks,
Namadev

Hi Namdev,
Generally when we archive file then in sender CC we just put the processing mode as Archive and specify the Archived directory name in Archive Directory section. in that case when the Communication channel pick the source file then after picking it it remove it from source directory and put it into Archived directory without making any change in the file name.
so if the file name is A.txt then in Archived directory also its name will be A.txt . However if you want to make any change in the name of the source file in the archived directory then you have two write Unix or DOC scrpt( depending upon your soure server )
if your source server is Unix then write shell script otherwise dos scriprt
.after wrtting the shell script just place in the archived directory or your source directory and call it in by mentioning it in Coomand Line section of your sender CC. You can easily search and get the required shell script .

How to replace first letters of a file name using Power shell or CMD

Hi guys i am having a problem on mane files that i have which are duplicated. The main reason i cant group them by name is because they have numbers in front of their name which differs Eg
01 - fileName.txt
09 - fileName.txt
02 - fileName.txt
11 - fileName.txt
i have a shed loads of them and would like to rename them by deleting the first three characters if they are numbers. I managed to create a powershell script to do that but the problem was that it would not work properly because the file would have a duplicated
name after deleting the first few chars.
can anyone help with a better script which would add a number to the end of the file name eg:
fileName1.txt
fileName2.txt
fileName3.txt
Ps all the files start with two numbers followed by a dash, however i have manually done a few which does not start with numbers and should be left alone by the script
Thank you

Here's a quick way to do it. I'm not sure what your existing code looks like but it sounds like you could incorporate this line into it.
if ($oldfilename -match "[0-9]")
$newfilename = $oldfilename.split("-")[1].trim().split(".")[0] + $oldfilename.split("-")[0].trim() + "." + $oldfilename.split("-")[1].trim().split(".")[1]
else
$newfilename = $oldfilename
01 - fileName.txt becomes fileName01.txt
fileName.txt stays fileName.txt

How to write to the end of a file

i am tryign to write to the end of a file using bufferwriter and bufferreadear. I am trying to the read the file until i reach the end and then write in the end. I have some code but i dont know how to read until the end of the file.
File file = new File ("Product.txt");
          FileReader reader = new FileReader (file);
          BufferedReader readBuff = new BufferedReader (reader);
          FileWriter write = new FileWriter(file);
          BufferedWriter writeBuff = new BufferedWriter(write);
          String line = readBuff.readLine();
// i know i need to put a while loop somewhere around here

I want to write to the end of the file, what do you mean when you say "then write() until you've written that many bytes, which will overwrite the bytes already in the file."
          File file = new File ("Products.txt");
          FileReader reader = new FileReader (file);
          BufferedReader readBuff = new BufferedReader (reader);
          FileWriter write = new FileWriter(file);
          BufferedWriter writeBuff = new BufferedWriter(write);
          String line = readBuff.readLine();
          long fileSize = file.length();

How to delete the specified line in file?

How to delete the specified line in file? In case of deleting a specified line in a file, how to do?
Line 1
Line 2
Line 3
Line 4
Line 5
The case is a file including the above content. Now I wanna to delete the "Line 3" and how to realize the action in Java?

An alternative solution can be :
import java.io.LineNumberReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
public class LineDeleter {
public static void main(String args[]){
try {
//suppose you want to delete line 3
     int lineToBeDeleted = 3;
     File f = new File("line.txt");
     long fileSize = f.length();
//Wrap the FileReader with a LineNumberReader. It will help you
//identify the lines.
LineNumberReader lnr = new LineNumberReader( new FileReader(f));
//Wrap the FileWriter object with BufferedWriter object. Create it with the buffersize
//equal to the file size.
     BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(new File("line1.txt")),(int)fileSize);
//Wrap BufferedWriter object with PrintWriter so that it allows you
//to print line by line
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(bw);
     String s=null;
     while ( (s=lnr.readLine())!=null ){
          System.out.println(s);
          int lineNumber = lnr.getLineNumber();
//match the line number
          if(! (lineNumber==lineToBeDeleted)){
               pw.println(s);
          pw.flush();
          lnr.close();
          pw.close();
     catch(Exception e){System.out.println(e);}
If you want you can rename the line1.txt to the original file name.
I hope this helps.Good luck!!!!!!
