cmd/brename.py

'''
Batch rename files by providing a string to be `eval`ed, using variable `x` as
the current filename.
Yes I know this is weird, but for certain tasks it's just too quick and easy to pass up.

For example:

Prefix all the files:
brename.py "'Test_' + x"

Keep the first word and extension:
brename.py "(x.split(' ')[0] + '.' + x.split('.')[-1]) if ' ' in x else x"
