How to add file prefixes in batches in Linux

You need to add "gt_" in front of the file names of all txt files in the folder;

That is, the original file "xxx.txt" becomes "gt_xxx.txt":

The script I searched online is as follows:

for i in `ls`;
do mv -f $i 'echo "gt_"$i`;
done

1. First, switch the Linux command line to the directory where you need to modify the file name:

cd destination directory

2. Create a new sh file in this directory:

touch xxx.sh

3. Open the xxx.sh file:

vim xxx.sh

3. Copy the script content just now to the sh file, save and exit

Edit sh file: Shift+I

Save and exit after pasting: Ctrl+Alt +D to exit the editing state, then enter :wq! to exit

Execute sh file: ./xxx.sh

I have never come across Linux commands before, and now I need to use some of them. I am taking this note as a reminder~~~

ps: Batch change file prefix command under linux

for f in * ; do mv -- "$f" "PRE_$f" ; done
