Substituir:
find . -type f -exec rename .hs ' ' * \;
Com:
find . -type f -exec rename .hs '' {} \;
Em um comando -exec
, o local para onde você deseja que o nome do arquivo seja colocado deve ser marcado com {}
.
Além disso, como acredito que você queira .hs
removido, não substituído por um espaço, removemos o espaço entre aspas simples.
Documentação
man find
inclui uma explicação da opção -exec
:
-exec command ;
Execute command; true if 0 status is returned. All following arguments to find are taken to be arguments to the command until an argument consisting of;
is encountered. The string{}
is replaced by the current file name being processed everywhere it occurs in the arguments to the command, not just in arguments where it is alone, as in some versions of find. Both of these constructions might need to be escaped (with a\
) or quoted to protect them from expansion by the shell. See the EXAMPLES section for examples of the use of the -exec option. The specified command is run once for each matched file. The command is executed in the starting directory. There are unavoidable security problems surrounding use of the -exec action; you should use the-execdir
option instead. [Emphasis added.]
