bulkrename

bulkrename is a tool for renaming large numbers of files.

bulkrename accepts file paths either via command line arguments or via standard input. When invoked, bulkrename opens a file in EDITOR with the input paths. After user exits EDITOR, bulkrename will rename all the input files using the file names from the file as their new names.

If you are familiar with the bulkrename command of the Ranger file manager, this program works basically the same way.
