Rename multiple files using a text file

Presently I'm facing the task of renaming multiple files with garbled names and numbers to a knowable

num - title

01 - from pole to pole

02 - mountains

03 - fresh water

asf.

I can retrieve the proper file names easily from the Internet and copy them into a text file, say

properTitles.txt

Now - like in mp3tag for instance - I would simply point to properTitles.txt and have Opus rename the files accordingly.

How can I do that?

Thanks for your time.

Use the Advanced Renamer.

With filenames in the clipboard (one per line), use the Paste new names from clipboard command to paste them into the Rename dialog.
