Dear @john-geehreng

Would there be any chance of tweaking your wonderful renamer ui script to get rid of illegal characters please? Such as changing spaces to underscores, removing exclamation marks etc?

Hey @johnt

I don’t think there’s much of a chance I’ll revisit that script, but I do have a couple of others that I could combine. That script would remove illegal characters and replace spaces with underscores. Would that work for you?

Once you install it, you can find it in the same place as the Renamer UI script.
