X29-Renamer 1.5 Description

"At best these longer file or folder names get truncated."

EditBy: The Mac OS9 file system (and ASIP file servers) have a maximum character limitation of 31 for either file or folder names. Mac OSX and for that matter, a number of versions of Windows allow much longer file names than does Mac OS9.

At best these longer file or folder names get truncated with names ending in what is "gibberish". At worst, when attempting to copy a folder containing a few of these files with longer names, the copy will be prevented thereby requiring the user to locate the problematic files. In folders with many files this can become a time consuming task.

This simple drop application was created to take those OSX "unfriendly" long names and truncate them, including and respecting any file extension, to the 31 characters that OS9 accepts. In addition, to avoid name conflicts, the program will uniquely number each file or folder before the extension up to a maximum of 999.

Just drop the folder or the files on top of the application and the rest is handled automatically. You can then be assured of no random names being generated and all files uniquely named and numbered as well. If you double click on the file first you will see our splash screen as well. Solutions to problems are our business.
