INTRODUCTION

This is a small utility that is able to rename file names! Hmm, a rename
command you think, why the hell I should need that?

mrename is much more flexible than the original rename command. It can add
extension, convert filenames to lower and to upper case, rename a bunch of
files at once, select files to rename via pattern matching, act
recursively and and and... ;-)

LEGAL INFO

mrename may be freely distributed NON COMMERCIALLY! It is freeware!

Therefore mrename may NOT be distributed on AmiNet CDs, cause I consider
them beeing commercial.

I expressively allow distribution via AmiNet ftp servers , via Mailboxes
and on the next Meeting Pearls CD!

HISTORY

1.1     14. 7.96    first *BETA* release
                    better to call it BETA before I know it better! ;-)
                    executable size: 4984 bytes
1.2     21. 9.96    recompiled with full optimizing power on ;)
                     gcc 2.72 rulez, saved approx. 1700 bytes
                    added script for automatically generate distribution
                     archives (saving me time.)
                    executable size: 3240 bytes ;)
1.3     21. 9.96    removed bugs due to inproper, e.g. missing
                     initialization of AnchorPath structure
                    removed beta status, it seems to work pretty good now
                    sorry no new features, only bug fixes, as I had
                     much other things to do (e.g. writing MetaToolPrefs;)
