VMs: Beinecke id converters

[tyoung1@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi all,

Here are two scripts for batch renaming files.  The files should be named #######.sid
where ####### is the Beinecke id.  Download the appropriate file (windows or *nix) and place it in the same directory as the sid files. (No, I didn't write these by hand :-> )

If you are on windows, just 2bl click the bat file.  For *nix, you might be able to 2bl click the sh file, otherwise, you will need to run it from the console.

That being said, of course, I will try my best to help anyone who has problems.

Windows version:

*nix Version:

I hope this helps.

Ted
