On Mac OS 8 or 9, sometimes, we have objects that don't end with the .iff suffix, because it has been cut due to the Mac's limitation to 31 characters, so we have "." or ".i", or anything at all, and these objects won't work in our game. It can be long and boring to rename a full folder of troncated names files... But NameRectifier is here!
Sometimes, you download several times the same objet, and you have in your Downloads folder "objects.iff, object.iff.1, object.iff.2". NameRectifier will help you to get rid of these double files.

The application tells you what it did:

Let's see in the Finder how look our files names now: Yeah! They all finish by ".iff"!!

That's all. ;)
