It sounds like you're trying to override the playback
order in a screensaver, picture frame, or smart TV.

Yes. I want to jumble images to not clump.
IV doesn't really have anything that is random.

By
appending a prefix to the file name, the alphabetical
order can be overridden.

Thank you.
The gawk looks good but does it do more than RandomNames?

That script has the option to undo and to prepend to the file name.

REM 0 = Rename the file randomly.
SET PrependOnly=0

REM 1 = Prepend the existing file name with randomly generated string.
SET PrependOnly=1

REM 1 = Undo changes according to the translation file.
SET Undo=1
