ive recently been trying to change the names around in my project and have been having some trouble getting the task done properly.



my problem is when I try to use



find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/volix/sergio/g'
find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/Volix/Sergio/g'
find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/VOLIX/SERGIO/g'
find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/VLX/SRG/g'



this will find and replace all the names within the files im trying to change, but it leaves the name of the folders still the same as what they before the name changes.



the folders that need to be "Re-named" are like this :




  • List item



    • volix-res.rc

    • volix.qrc

    • volix-tx.cpp

    • volix_logo_horizontal.png

    • volix_logo_horizontal2x.png

    • unit_tmvolix.png

    • unit_tvolix.png


and many more files with the name "volix", im wondering how I can change all of these at once instead of manually renaming one by one?
