    Please don’t use spaces in your *nix filenames, that is just bad. To answer your question, use a bash script. Chatgpt can probably even make it for you if you don’t know how to write it.

      If you want to use spaces in filenames, it’s a good reason to write in something other than shell; although modern shells can be made to work with spaces in filenames safely, it’s still fiddly.
