Batch renaming in suse

So, I downloaded a torrent of flacs and I want to copy them over to a windows comp, but they all have colons in the filenames, and I need to remove that from all the filenames to get them over to windows. I could do it manually but there's about 150 files and it would take a while. So is there an easier way to remove one character from a series of files without heavy scripting?

nope

perl -e 'for $old (<*>) { $new = $old; $new =~ s/;//g; rename($old, $new) }'

>>3
oops, you said colon, change s/;//g -> s/://g

for f in *; do mv $f `echo $f | tr -d :`; done

Fuck your Perl.
