Recursively rename all files with ".JPG" extension to ".jpg"


Use the ‘helm-file-globstar’ feature described in recursive globbing
by entering "**.JPG" at the end of the Helm-find-files pattern, then hit
M-@@ and enter "JPG" on first prompt, then "jpg" on second prompt and hit ‘RET’.

@item
Batch-rename files from number 001 to 00x


Use "\#" inside the second prompt.
