Product Description:

If you need to rename several files at once, this is the application you have always been looking for. Name Mangler is a batch file renamer that supports the following renaming tasks: Find and Replace (including support for regular expressions); Number Sequentially; Change Case; Set Extension; Add Prefix/Suffix; Remove/Insert Characters.

Moreover, you can combine all of these using the Advanced renaming mode, which even comes with some extra features, such as conditional statements, nested counters, and more.

But Name Mangler is more than just one versatile renaming utility — it's an infinite number of task-specific renaming utilities: Name Mangler's Droplets make it ridiculously easy to store configurations and use those repeatedly for different, alternating purposes. Just drop your files on them.

What's new in this version:

  • [new] files can now be listed in a less detailed way (cf. "General" preferences), allowing you to survey a larger number of files at once
  • [new] you can now have Name Mangler ignore " ", "-", "_", and "0" characters when determining the common prefix (cf. "Processing" preferences)
  • [new] by default, image files are now represented by previews instead of generic icons (cf. "General" preferences)
  • [improved] streamlined the user interface and turned this into a universal binary
  • [fixed] Path Finder support on Mac OS X 10.5
  • [fixed] sorting by path

  • Mac OS X 10.5 Intel

Name Mangler ReviewGreat free app - Version: 2.0, 11/15/2008 08:07PM PST

This has several things I like: the ability to change case, the option to preserve extensions, and a second chance to proceed or not proceed. Oh, and the price is great! The only free file name changer I found that can do what I need it to do.

Name Mangler ReviewApp won't display GUI, so I can't use app. - Version: 2.0, 6/29/2008 10:58AM PST

Can't view app's GUI. Activity Monitor shows that app is present. App icon shows in Dock. After I read a positive review in May '08 issue of Macworld, I downloaded freeware app to try. Would be worth paying for if I could get app to work. Have killed and restarted app many times. Haven't rebooted (out of principle) yet. Uninstalled app (w/ CleanApp) and then reinstalled a newly downloaded .dmg from developer's Website. Still no luck w/ GUI appearing. I'll give it one more try whenever I reboot the next time. Using Leopard 10.5.1 on PPC.
