replace spaces in filenames

[dulh...@mailbox.org]

hi everybody,

I have a situation where I need to replace spaces in filenames on a large scale.
Is there any way to do this with Ansible?

[Brian Coca]

yes, but for that specific task i would use the `rename` command with
expressions

There are accepted patches in the pipeline which add an "--all" parameter to the `rename` command, so you can replace all the spaces in one go instead of just the first one. Alas, that has not made it to a released version yet. Soon, though, I hope.
