Examples

## Not run: 
## Set working directory to where the files are
## Single file
renameGPXfile("NCTBF01","NCTBF001")

## Example of multiple files with a consistent file change pattern
olds <- c("NCTBF01","NCTBF07a")
news <- stringr::str_replace(olds,"NCTBF","NCTBF0")
cbind(olds,news)
renameGPXfile(olds,news)

## Example of multiple files to get new numbers padded with zeroes
olds <- c("NCTBF01","NCTBF07a")
news <- paste0("NCTBF",stringr::str_pad(seq_along(olds),width=3,pad=0))
cbind(olds,news)
renameGPXfile(olds,news)
