Never heard of that one...any URL?
I bet when Cheetahs race and one of them cheats, the other one goes "Man, you're such a Cheetah!" and they laugh & eat a zebra or whatever.

Hmm, seems to have a decent feature set, but needs more clicks to achieve similar results.

Ant Renamer seems nice -- source code is available too  :Thmbsup:

I hope to verify whether it works well portably and under Wine.

In my brief testing, Ant Renamer seemed to function fine under Wine  :Thmbsup:

I tested the zip that is currently available via:

Ok... This is a serious WTF moment for me...

Check out BRU here:

http://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk

It's AWESOME!

There's another DC thread about it here as well.

Really... Been using it forever and love it.

Wow that's a serious looking app you have there :-)  I've been using AdvancedRenamer for ages, it does everything I want very easily ... but I'll be downloading this just to have a play with that astonishing amount of options...

If you happen to be an emacs user, perhaps the following may appeal:

In dired mode C-x C-q will let you leverage the functionality of emacs to edit the file names in the dired buffer.  When you're done, C-c C-c to commit your changes...
