My favorite is still oscars -- which lists the files in a plain text field. I typically just copy/paste into EditPad, perform the rename regex there, then copy it back to oscars.  I love turning file structures into text files and back :)

It is a nice renamer with macro recording and playback, but still doesn't handle folders.

Nice software, still can't handle folders or files on network places.

I must have missed that, for me, it does not, neither that is mentioned in the documentation, nor on its web site.
And for some reason, it stops responding when I try to record a macro.

OK, I'll stop whining now.   :)
