| | UpperLower - Counting in Base 52 using first upper- then lower case letters |

| | .. TIP:: **The difference between a "base" and a "symbol set".** |

|---|
| | In order to make such counting-based renamings as flexible |
|---|
| | as possible, **tren** is built to be able to count *in any |
|---|
| | base* (2 or higher) and *make use of any symbol set*. |
|---|
| |
|---|
| | And so on. You can use most any combination of characters you like to |
|---|
| | customize your sequence renaming token output. There are a few things to |
|---|
| | keep in mind, however: |
|---|
| | |
|---|
| | - The counting *base* is determined by the *length of the symbol set* |
|---|
| | not what characters you use. |
|---|
| | - The counting *base* is determined by the *number of symbols in the |
|---|
| | symbol set* not what characters you use. In the example above, |
|---|
| | we're counting in base 3 irrespective of what symbols are used |
|---|
| | to represent each "number". |
|---|
| | |
|---|
| | - You can define as many new alphabets as you like on the command line. |
|---|
| | (Well ... up to the maximum command line length limit imposed by |
|---|
| | the shell and/or operating system you're using.) |
|---|
| | |
|---|
| | - The alphabet name is case sensitive. ``Foo``, ``FOO``, and ``foo`` |
|---|
| | are all different alphabet names (assuming they are all defined). |
