# owl(1)

|
*The moon is bright. The owls are ready for the hunt.*
|
|
|
|
Owl is a file renaming tool; it removes character from file names which are
|
|
not compatible with `FAT` file systems (typically `FAT32` or `exFAT`).
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
owl COMMAND OPTIONS FILE1 FILE2 ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Rename `FILE`s given at the command line such that all `FAT`-incompatible
|
|
characters are removed. By default it replaces invalid characters with
|
|
`_U{Unicode Code Point}_`, but this can be changed, see the `--strategy`
|
|
flag below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Options:
|
|
### -s, --strategy STRATEGY
|
|
Change what happens to invalid characters. Choices are:
|
|
|
|
- "remove": just remove the characters. If left with an empty string, rename
|
|
to "\_empty_".
|
|
- "represent": replace each character with "\_Unum_", where "num" is the
|
|
Unicode Code Point of the character.
|
|
|
|
### -n, --dry-run
|
|
Causes Owl to just print a representation of what would be done without
|
|
actually renaming any files.
|
|
|
|
### -v, --version
|
|
Show version information.
|
|
|
|
### -h, --help
|
|
Show a small help message.
