detox - 2.0.0-4 main

detox is a utility designed to clean up filenames. It replaces difficult to
work with characters, such as spaces, with standard equivalents. It will also
clean up filenames with UTF-8 or Latin-1 (or CP-1252) characters in them.
.
Features:
* Removal or replacement of upper ASCII Latin-1 (ISO 8859-1) characters;
* Removal or replacement of UTF-8 encoded Unicode characters;
* Removal or replacement of spaces and other potentially tricky characters;
* Trimming of excessive "_" and "-"s;
* Directory recursion, dry runs, verbose listings.
.
It is designed with safety in mind. It won't overwrite a file that already
exists, and it doesn't touch special files if not requested.
.
detox is useful to mass rename files automatically. As just one example,
you can use detox to easily standardize lots of files, as MP3 or movies,
downloaded or stored inside a directory.
.
This package provides detox and inline-detox commands. The inline-detox can
be used in command lines, as a filter in shell procedures.
