ReNamer is a very powerful and flexible file renaming tool with the following features:
- The workflow toolbar makes renaming easy.
- ReNamer can rename files belonging to different folders (or even different computers) at a time.
You can also filter the contents of the folders before renaming. - ReNamer offers extensive set of rules for renaming.Each rule has controllable parameters.
- ReNamer can stack multiple rules in any sequence and apply in that order.
- ReNamer provides full preview (the affected file names can be highlighted).
- ReNamer allows you to try out the stack of rules on user-defined text
(This allows safe experimentation, without risking real files). - ReNamer can automatically handle name-conflicts arising from the renaming.
- You can save the stack of rules as a "preset" and re-use it later with a keyboard shortcut.
- ReNamer can rename folders also.
- ReNamer can rename Windows network (neighborhood) files also.
- ReNamer can use RegEx (Regular Expressions) for the renaming.
- ReNamer supports Unicode filenames (e.g. Asian scripts, Cyrillic, French, Spanish, Arabic, Hebrew, etc).
- ReNamer allows scripting (Pascal Script) to create complex renaming logic
(Many scripts are available at the Forum). - ReNamer can extract a large variety of meta tags from files and use them for the renaming.
(e.g. ID3v1, ID3v2, EXIF, OLE, AVI, MD5, SHA1, CRC32, etc) - ReNamer can export/import the renaming-related information.
- ReNamer can take automatic actions based on outcome of renaming operation
(e.g. clear off all successfully renamed files from the pane, but retain the problematic files) - ReNamer can be run in command line mode, with lot of parameters.
You can use this for "one-touch renaming" of all your selected files.
