|Rename Tool| - by maspa
This script allows you to quickly rename a bunch of objects in the maya outliner.
It also allows for search and replacing and suffix/prefix addition.
You can also make use of the Auto-Suffix function, which adds a suffix depending on the nodetype of the object. (e.g. a joint gets a _JNT suffix (can be changed to anything you like))
|Installation|
1.Place the renameTool folder in the Documents Maya scripts folder located here:
<DRIVE>:\Users\<USERNAME>\Documents\maya\scripts
2. Start Maya, copy or drag-and-drop the renameToolUI.py file into the Script editor (Windows > General Editors > Script Editor) and make sure that the tab you are copying it into is set to "Python".

4. You can use your own short name for nodetypes by altering the renameToolTable.txt file. To find out more nodetype names you can execute this script in the script editor(python tab) (you have to have the wanted object selected):
import pymel.core as pm
selection = pm.selected()
print(selection[0].nodeType())
The nodetype will be the last line in the console after executing the code.
