Hi,
Try:
from1 <- list.files() ##folder where files are stored
from1
#[1] "p126r62_5t19880613_nn1.tif.gz" "p126r62_5t19880613_nn2.tif.gz"
#[3] "p200r65_5t19880613_nn1.tif.gz"
to1 <-
gsub("^p(\\d+)r(\\d+)\\_.{2}(\\d{8})\\_nn(.*)","LT5\\10\\2\\3XXXX_B\\4",from1)
file.rename(from1,to1)
#[1] TRUE TRUE TRUE
list.files()
#[1] "LT512606219880613XXXX_B1.tif.gz" "LT512606219880613XXXX_B2.tif.gz"
#[3] "LT520006519880613XXXX_B1.tif.gz"

Hi guys,
Thank you for reply
Actually I have thousands of files and I would like to change file name, then
I can use it in my software
e.g The original file
p126r62_5t19880613_nn1.tif.gz
The expected change
LT512606219880613XXXX_B1.tif.gz
The every single character in original files has some meaning
p126r62_5t19880613_nn1.tif.gz
p(path)126(path number) r (raw)62(rownumber)_5t(name of
instrument)19880613(date)_nn1(band number).tif.gz
So I would like to replace some part
p = LT5
r = 0
_5t =remove
_nn =B
XXXX=add after date
I have tried file.rename() function but I was unable to apply this change to
all files.
is it possible to use file.rename function to apply for all file?
