Your perl isn't totally rusty (you mean "s/-(.*)-/$1/" as regex).

But I want it to be more dynamic. As first stated in the thread, it could be
cool to make the name out of the content of the prior filename. A regex is
then a lot more complicated (or I miss the solution).

That's why I think a real user example is good to talk around. When trying
that part it all gets a bit more complicated.
