Subject: Re: renaming files randomly

Hey,

You could rewrite without the zip and the temporary variable...
ala:

Dir.chdir("photos") do
  Dir["*"].sort_by{rand}.each_with_index do |f,n|
    File.rename(f, n.to_s)
  end
end

Though be careful, you've just lost the file-name extension, and
unpretty things could happen if you run the script over the same
directory multiple times (which I guess could happen when you want to
re-shuffle the playlist).

Regards,

Tris
