Installation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  sudo yum install gprename

Better to install it manually:
  sudo apt install build-essential libintl-perl gettext nautilus-actions
  wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/gprename/files/latest/download
  tar xvjf gprename-????.tar.bz2
  cd gprename
  sudo make install

To run GPRename in another language, you need to open the application
like so : LANGUAGE=fr gprename
The complete list of available languages is in the locale directory.

To uninstall: sudo make uninstall

Installation from SVN:
Install the application Subversion, open up a terminal, type:
svn co https://gprename.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gprename gprename
and follow the instructions above.

Translation
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Download GPRename, extract it and go into the locale directory.
Copy the file gprename.po and modify it to any language and send it on the
mailing list at gprename-users@lists.sourceforge.net

Note that some strings have a underscore ( _ ), use it as a mnemonics,
which is a letter underlined and you can call it with ALT-letter in the
application and, of course, don't underline 2 times the same letter.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


To do
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recursive options to re-implement

Create an RPM of the latest version available.

Implement a new column Date that can be sorted.
Implement a new column Filesize that can be sorted.

Add a right-click option to rename just 1 file.

Option : Insert numerical at a specific position

Add a swap checkbox to swap text.
Example : "Artist - Song.mp3"
Swap to "Song - Artist.mp3" by using " - " as a swap text
