Originally I wanted to call an existing rename profile (in the same way as a filter) with a MScript.  Couldn't see how to do that.  Filters have an ID to call but I have not found ID tags in the rename dialog & didn't dig deeper. 

Not all files contain all the same items I want to change.  Some have one character to change, others some or all.
I wasn't sure I could apply a single @var to this task.  I expected conflicts.
I concluded that with multiple possible case-sensitive rename actions, I needed to queue them discretely, so gave them different @vars.   
Would a Function concatenate multiple changes...?

As you know I like to cause headaches with MultiScript - I find it therapeutic.   8) :)

I added two new strReplace  MultiScript function in 6.9.1, so doing the thing about or similar should be easier.


--- Code: ---// Replace every 'a' and every b and c with the substring "Dragon" 
// so if $name is  "abcdef" it will be  "555def"  the replace with can be a substring with many chars. BUT is you include characters there are inlcuded in the replace characters , The result will be strange
$Name = StrReplaceChars( $Name, "abc" , "5" ); 

// This require that Replace pattern and ReplaceWith is the same lenght, the first char in 'replace' will be replaced with the first char in "replacewith" and so on.
$Name = StrReplaceCharsPairs( $Name, "_ mryxa" , "-eR ms" );

--- End code ---

Hi Mathias.

Are there plans to add  StrReplaceChars() and StrReplaceCharsPairs() to the documentation?

If so, I feel some editing coming on ;)
