This script renames the bones positioned in the Left and right
sides of the armature, and if no suffix is specified, it’s
added automatically.
It’s only needed to name the left-side bones of the armature, without specifying the “_L” suffix, because it’s automatically
added and the bone located in the opposite side of the armature,
gets the same name, with the _R suffix in it’s name.
Notes:
The script must be run in Object Mode - Only the bones in the Left side of the armature (right side from viewer)
must be renamed
there is the original script.
not tested.
