Mass rename files inside archive

[skyhirider]

7zip supports the rn command that can rename files if you provide pairs of old new.

If you need to rename an archive with tens of thousands of files however, this solution is not scalable as terminals have a limited number of characters.

Would it be possible for the command to consume a file with a list of pairs that would be used for the rename operation?

The list file supports file name pairs for rename command.
Just write each name in new line. You need two lines per one rename pair.

Will this work if I have one million files or more?

You can try it.
But maybe it will be slow for some cases.
