Sorry, another question

is possible inverse name and surname, for example, I have my file named like it:

Lorenzo Jovanotti - La gente della notte.mp3

I want

Jovanotti Lorenzo - La gente della notte.mp3

Thanks

You can use the Rearrange rule.

I have read your link but I havent' find a solution. The best that I have find is:

split using: Exact pattern
in the first space to write I have put only a space
in the second I have write $2
but, if my mp3 is named

Lorenzo Jovanotti - La gente della notte.mp3

the result is

Jovanotti - La gente della notte

the name is deleted

Have you looked at Example 1?

In your case it is best to use:

Split using: Exact pattern of delimiters
Delimiter: " - " (without the quotes)
New pattern: $2 - $1

don't work it rename in:

La gente della notte - Lorenzo Jovanotti.mp3

I have misread your question.

If you want to swap only the first two words, then use:

Split using: Exact pattern of delimiters
Delimiter: " | " (without the quotes)
New pattern: $2 $1 $3
