Idea #21372: pyRename as part of Dolphin

Written by incredion the 9 Sep 09 at 11:28. Related project: Dolphin. Status: New
Rationale
I often work with files and directories with Dolphin and have the need to rename a lot of files in the same manner.
pyRename is e.g. a nice tool for that, easy to use and with powerful features.
However, it sucks to just go to the k-menu, open pyRename, navigate it to the directory that I have already open in Dolphin, and then, finally be able to start renaming.

Solution #1: pyRename as part of Dolphin
Written by incredion the 9 Sep 09 at 11:28.
As Dolphin is a file-manager, I suggest to implement the pyRenamer functions as part of Dolphin, in the same way, as you can open a konsole view using F4, you should be able to enter the mass-rename-toolbox similar to pyRename by pressing F10 or another hotkey.

Solution #2: Use the Built-in tools

Dolphin already has mass-rename tools. You can just highlight and rename them.
