Mass renaming

ftr

Hi,
In my Zot I have an author with the name of Eric M. Uslaner, whose exact spelling, in particular the first name, depends on the biblio databases from which I imported.
So, there are numerous spellings of the same author:
Eric Uslaner, E. Uslaner, Eric M. Uslaner, Eric M Uslaner, not to speak about the different number of empty spaces between the first and middle name.

How can I rename an author name in a row ?
In the end run I want to have all names reading Eric M. Uslaner.

Is this possible ?

not easily, no. It's planned for future versions, but until then the only thing you have is

which, to put it mildly, is not for the faint of heart.

Thank you for the info.

It's a pity, though.
