About:
Renameutils provides a set of command-line utilities for batch renaming and moving files. Its core tool, 'icmd', allows users to edit file lists in a text editor, enabling complex renaming operations that are difficult with standard shell commands. This significantly streamlines the organization of large file collections.
Key Features:
  • icmv/icmd: Edit file operations in a text editor before execution
  • qmv: Quick batch renaming with a two-column interface
  • Safe execution: Operations are previewed and confirmed
  • Integrates with standard shell workflows
Use Cases:
  • Batch renaming large numbers of photos or documents
  • Organizing downloaded files with complex naming patterns
  • Refactoring project file structures
Alternatives:
  • mmv – mmv uses wildcard patterns, while renameutils allows editing in a text editor
  • rename (perl) – Perl rename uses regex, whereas renameutils provides an interactive editor interface
