[Metadatalibrarians] tools for massaging metadata

[Avila, Regina L.]

Can anybody share some good tools for massaging metadata? For anything from file renaming to cleaning ASCII characters to various formulas?  I know Excel does a lot of things but I'm looking for other useful software to consider. I'm familiar with Parserat, Notepad++, A Better File Rename and a few others.  Any other gems I should know?

Thanks.
