ReNamer handled 10,000 such renames in about 30 seconds total (copy the
files into Renamer, create the Rules, apply them). The actual renaming
was under 2 seconds.  I skipped the 3 optional validity checks that look
for dupes and valid file names after applying the Rules.

obviously if I were using a computer as part of a job, I'd have to use
