## The original detox
It is perfect but in termux i do not have it in my repositories, so:

```sh
#!/bin/bash
#
# Script: dtx
# Description: Rename files by removing special characters and normalizing names.
#
# Usage: dtx [-d] [-h] files...
# Options:
#   -d    Dry run. Show the final result without renaming.
#   -h    Show this help message.
#
# Dependencies: Requires Python 3 and the 'unidecode' module. Install with:
#   pip install unidecode
#

# Get the script name dynamically
script_name=$(basename "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")
