rmspaces

This is a simple script to remove those anoying, lame, awful spaces from file names. Just run rmspaces FILENAME.

Note that it could also be used to change multiple file names by using the --target and the --separator arguments. For example, if you have

$ ls
march_report  march_status  march_updates

rmspaces -t march -s 032017 *

would move the files in the current directory to:

$ ls
032017_report  032017_status  032017_updates

Check rmspaces --help for more information or check the docstrings in the source code.
