I wanted to rename a lot of files with a pattern so I tried this for loop:

$ for f in *; do mv \""$f"\" \""HouseMD-S06E${f#*Episode }"\"; done

But I got this error:

mv: cannot stat `"House MD Season 6 Episode 01 - Broken (Parts 1 & 2).avi"': No such file or directory

So what I did was echo the mv commands to a file like this:

$ for f in *; do echo mv \""$f"\" \""HouseMD-S06E${f#*Episode }"\">>mv.txt; done

And the run the file with source.

Any ideas why the first for didn't work and how can I fix it?
