I have numerous differently named files and want to batch remove all characters after months or years included in the filenames.
I can't find any discussions about this scenario, let alone any renaming tools that do much more than remove a set number of characters from the end.
To be clear, every filename is completely different so I can't easily search and remove. Relevant info is more or less there up to the dates, so everything after is redundant.
Is there a tool that can do this, or even a terminal formula? I may be missing something really obvious, so feel free to point and laugh.
