<div>Hi guys, I have a load of files in a directory with file names similar to below</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>OUT119-20120702-084956-1341215396.177198.gsm</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It is basically OUT(dialingextensionnumber)-DATE-TIME-UNIQUEID.gsm</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would like to somehow bulk rename all the files in this folder to strip everything other than the uniqueid.gsm bit</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So in this case I want the file to end up called </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1341215396.177198.gsm</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there a quick way to do this?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks</div>
