Can you send the script you've written so far?

Take care,

Hi gang.  Anyone got any scripts or know of where I can find some tools 
to do some mass-renaming?  For example, I have lots of audio files which 
are named:

12-song-title.ogg

And I'd like to mass rename them to:

Artist_-_songtitle.ogg

Or something to that affect.  I've triewd writing my own script but keep 
running into problems with the spaces in the files because wsith the mv 
command they need to be escaped.  It's not as easy as poutting '' around 
them.

Any ideas or suggestions?
