Rename (old) (new)

Help & Support
1

hi,

i like the new option when you start copying some files, and some of the files in the dest lister has the same name, that you can choose rename old or rename new.

a cool feature would be, if you could implement an option that you rename the old one to its create date, or the new one to its create date.

another cool feature would be, if you can implements a kind of script language in the renaming tool.

example:

if (file_exists(sourcefile) destfolder)
{
rename sourcefile dest/sourcefile_date('dmy');
}

or something like that.

best wishes.

I agree with this request.

Especially when dealing with a large amount of files such function may be useful.

The rename (but not the copy) command already lets you run scripts (VBScript, Perl, etc.) when renaming files, so that's already possible.

Yes i know, but something similar could be useful in the copy/move process and only for the clashing files, I suppose thet the initial request was aimed to solve this problem.

Greetings.
