=============================================

Features include:
 • Change to either upper or lower case
 • Recursive search & replace within filenames
 • Append file extensions or text
 • Supports drag and drop
 • 100% portable - no external DLLs or runtimes


Product Overview
=======================================
Drag and drop files onto Batchname's main window. If you don't select an
action using the checkboxes and text boxes, nothing will happen!

 • To change the case of a file(s)
   Check the Convert case box, and select upper or lower case.
   For example, 'lower' will convert HTML to html.

 • To append an extension
   Check the Append extension box, and enter the extension you wish
   to append to each file. Remember to include the period. For
   example, '.psd' to convert each file into an Adobe Photoshop document.

 • To search and replace within filenames
   Check the Search and Replace box, and enter first the text you wish
   to search for, then the text you wish to replace it with. Leaving
   the second box blank will have the effect of removing any text that
   matches the first box.

 • Added INI file to recall Window positioning and last working directory
