The file renaming utilities (renameutils for
short) are a set of programs designed to make
renaming of files faster and less cumbersome. qmv
("quick move") allows file names to be edited in a
text editor. The names of all files in a directory
are written to a text file, which is then edited
by the user. The text file is read and parsed, and
the changes are applied to the files. qcp copies files instead of renaming them. imv
("interactive move"), is trivial but useful when
you are too lazy to type (or even complete) the
name of the file to rename twice. It allows a file
name to be edited in the terminal using the GNU
Readline library. Similarly, icp copies files instead of renaming them.
