 # Rename Beep File
-This small script removes all the `+` characters and replaces them with a space contained in the file name.
+This script is useful to rename all files inside a folder.     
+Indeed it replaces all the instances of a target string (`target`) in the base name of each file with the character specified (`char`).
 
-It is a very simple tool but very useful when directly downloading zip files from folders from the [Beep site](https://beep.metid.polimi.it).
