[Krename-users] [Feature request] find and replace

[<ben...@ce...>]

Hello,

This is a great software but there is a powerful feature that I'd like 
to see in the future.
When you use the 'find and replace' feature, you only can give rules 
that apply on the original filename. Why don't give the possibility to 
apply a new rule on the original file changed by the past rules ?
An exemple :

the original file : "artist - the song.mp3"

the result I want : "artist__the_song.mp3"

The way I did that on windows (in the past :-) ) with emusic tag editor :
rule 1 " " --> "_" the current filename is "artist_-_the_song.mp3"
rule 2 "-" --> "_" the current filename is "artist___the_song.mp3"
rule 3 "___" --> "__" the current filename is "artist__the_song.mp3"

With this software, rules n applies on the filename modified by rules 
n-1, n-2, n-p and so on (this could be annoying, that's why the best is 
to give the possibility to have the present behaviour or 'my' feature 
enabled).


With the current version (ok, I only have 3.03) it is not possible to do 
so in one shot. With the pas example :

Find and replace:
- add " " --> "_"
- add "-" --> "_"
- add "___" --> "__"  ==> no effect because there is no such string in 
the original filename.
The result is "artist___the_song.mp3".

I could tried
- add " - " --> __
- add " " --> _
There is a conflict and not all the changes are applied.

Thank you for your response.

Best regards.
