I bet since Krename is in= stalled, rename is installed too. I'm sure Krename is just a GUI front end= to something already on here. >=20 > nano would work. >=20 > When you use renameutils in --format=3Ddestination-only (`-f do`) mode, y= ou just get a list of current file names in your text editor. You change th= em to the new names you desire and when you save the text file (and exit) t= he rename is completed. If you make such an error that you don't want the c= hanges to apply you exit the text editor without saving. Ha, I didn=E2=80=99t know that, thanks. If it became necessary to do a sear= ch and replace, I block-selected the first column and cut it into a register, anot= he buffer, or just deleted it away and at the end of editing, refetched the li= st of files using :r !ls.
