perlrename - Rename files using Perl code
This document describes version 0.609 of perlrename (from Perl distribution App-perlmv), released on 2023-11-17.
See perlmv for more documentation.
This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.
To activate bash completion for this script, put:
complete -C perlrename perlrename
in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
~/.bashrc
It is recommended, however, that you install modules using cpanm-shcompgen which can activate shell completion for scripts immediately.
To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:
complete perlrename 'p/*/`perlrename`/'
in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
~/.tcshrc
It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).
shcompgen
For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
