How to batch rename files? - China DOS Union Forum - China DOS Union

There are many MOV files in the same folder. How can I use A.TXT in that same folder to batch rename them? For example, change mysbdkr.mov to "The Eloquent Kong Rong.mov", change xdqyfx to "Xie Daoyun Cleverly Chanting Snow.mov". How should the code be written? Thanks in advance!

The contents of a.txt are:
AFTXZ Afanti Bathing
SZZG The Rope Grew Longer
WYBGSQQ Wen Yanbo Fetches a Ball by Pouring Water
SMGZGJR Sima Guang Smashes the Jar to Save the Child
GZQS The Pot Passes Away
LBKL Bitter Plums by the Roadside
XWCQJYLW Xu Wenchang Cleverly Wins a Gift
TJSM Tian Ji Horse Racing
DCPA Scarecrow Solves the Case
CCCX Cao Chong Weighs the Elephant
CZQBCS Cao Zhi Composes a Poem in Seven Steps
CNDLJ The Noisy Neighbor
MLDJL The Donkey Becomes Manager
ZMLQ Settling the Accounts
MSY Selling Tree Shade
TXDYW The Best Flavor Under Heaven
SSZH Disaster Brought on by Sacrificing Oneself
AFTZQML Afanti Cleverly Retrieves the Donkey

The separator in the middle is not a space, it's a TAB

Thank you, but the filenames didn't change

I already feel sick replying to this kind of repetitive thread. It's nothing more than a FOR and a REN, and you can't even modify it yourself?
This is really discouraging.

Exactly right, thanks, thanks

If someone has helped you solve the problem, it is recommended that you do the following:

1. Edit the thread title and mark it with:

2. Give credits to the person who answered correctly as a way of showing thanks. Although everyone comes to the forum to learn rather than for credits, giving credits as a small token of appreciation can at least bring some comfort to the person who spent time and effort helping you selflessly.

3. If you wrote the code yourself based on someone else's hints, please post your own method and share it with everyone. Maybe others can point out deficiencies in your code, tell you how to improve execution efficiency, and so on. Only through discussion can you make faster progress.
