Rename/cleanup folder names using the simple rules. For optimal result you may like
also like to try my [filename_cleaner][] gem which clean/rename the bad file names.

Features
--------

- Rename directory recursively from any starting location
- Replace unwanted characters with value of your choice using `--sep-string` option (default to . (dot))
- Following the [Semantic Versioning][] for release schedule
- Quickly rename bad folder names to good folder names with one command.

TL;DR;
-----
Turn these directories (if your OS allow you to have these names)

```
some_folder/
├── aa!@#$!01
│   └── bb#@#$@#$@01
├── aa**#$@#$#@$aa
    └── bb$@#$#@$@#bb
        └── cc#$!#$@#cc!!!
```

into these directories

```
some_folder/
├── aa_01
│   └── bb_01
├── aa_aa
    └── bb_bb
        └── cc_cc

```
using command like:

```sh
cd ~/path/to/some_folder/

# Perform the dry-run to see what will be changed (no changes)
