A setting to save the width of the HPaned of the tree is a good idea and I've
already implemented it, it's in SVN.

As for the other features, if I don't forget anything, here's what I've added
in the to do list :

Add a status bar at the bottom with the number of files and directories.
Add a toggle option to not show hidden files.
Add a Remember last directory option.
Optimize the code, at over 6000 files GPRename doesn't respond very well, this
is especially bad when the recursive option will be implemented.

For the width of the Name/New Name column, GPRename will automatically resize them
and correctly adjust these columns to fit the list of files or directories, that is,
if you do not resize it by yourself, then it won't work. Try to browse through
directories and you'll see you don't have to resize it by yourself, maybe we should
lock these columns so that no user can resize it?

Finally, as you said, GPRename doesn't have any right-click options, the toggle
hidden files will be put in the Options menu, it's a little bit farther than a
right-click, but it's much simpler to implement and you won't have to toggle this
option on and off every day anyway :)

Cheers.
