renamerV2 by p4rAn0id (2012)
============================
Simple Tool.
Usefull to remove or replace strings on directory- and
filenames. It is also possible to "Folder" and "Unfolder"
files. In a early Beta-State is an Unpacking feature that
depends on an available 7za.exe.
Use the simulate Button before you start the real Action.
So you can check if your Settings are correct.
Perhaps this Program can be a Securityrisk.
Don't use this Tool as Admin! (in this Case, you must ultra
very well be sure, that you know, what you do).
The Programm will perhaps crash, if you use it on
Directorys/Files, without the needed Permissions or wrong
settings/values! Please report such crashes.
Feel free to rate, comment and share this tool.

FAQ - or something else
-----------------------
Q: What is LoS? / For what is the File
"list_of_strings.txt"?
A: LoS is my Shortname for the File "list_of_strings.txt"
In this File you can edit/add/remove Strings (with
your preferred Texteditor). Only one String per Line.
Use only Chars, that are allowed in File- and
Directorynames, else the Program can Crash. I dont
Check your Input! You must know, what you do!
Q: How can i Edit an added String in this Box?
A: Here a little 'How-To' edit an ListBox-Item
To Edit an ListBox Item you can
Doubleklick it
select and press 'Enter' or 'F2'
To delete selected ListBox Items, you can
select and press 'Del' or 'Backspace'
select and click the 'remove'-Button
The Item will only change, if you
press 'Enter'
To exit the Editfunction, without changing the Item
press 'Escape'
It's still possible, to click the Buttons/Checkboxes
it's not a Bug, it's a Feature! You can still close the
Program
Q: Can i get Support?
A: If you are lucky, there is a Community, or better, you
can help yourself. Otherwise, you can try this:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/renamerv2/support
Q: Why is this nice tool not on thepiratebay available?
A: It was. For 1 day or sowhat. Then my account got
"deleted" and the torrent was nomore available on tpb.
I cant create a new account with the used email. Yes,
it sounds strange, but it is really happened.
ToDo:
- add more async workers
- more Checking (ex. Permissions) and Errorhandling
- Multiload of diffrent LoS-Files
- Options for appending or replace to/the ListBox's
Content (from/with LoS-Files)
- more Preferences for setting Defaults for Dynamic and
Hardcoded Values
- implement db4o to store Logs and/or Settings
- Installer (currently the updater can be abused for)
- store settings to the Registry
- add Version-Check to the Updater
atm the Updater get the actual renamerV2.exe without
worry about existence and version when it get started
manually
mono - known issues
--------------------
The moving of multiselected items in the Listbox isn't so
nice as under win7. Selected items can lose their
selection. Moving a single item work as expected.
Updater can start new renamerV2, but the started renamerV2
get closed too if the Updater get closed. The start on a
Unix/Mac is disabled and a Message get displayed.
Updater can't close running renamerV2. This is because the
renamerV2 runs as 'mono' and not 'renamerV2'. The start
of the Updater from within renamerV2 is disabled under
Unix/Mac and a Message get displayed.
Relatively pathes aren't supported as in windows. I use the
Application.StartUpPath when a Unix/Mac is detected. And
the portable Mode get disabled by default.
On Unix/Mac in the 'About' is the Text-Scrolling disabled

Thanks to the 'punto-informatico.it'-Community for the
input
renamerV2 v2.6.4587.21537 (23.07.2012)
- some performance optimizations
- made the items in list movable
you can move multiselected items
- possibility to save the actual ListboxItems to own LoS
if you save the LoS as a new File and you want to use
this LoS when you open renamerV2 next time you have to
open the Settingsmanager and click on one of the 'Save'
Buttons. You can anytime configure your own LoS in the
Settingmanager under:
System/LoS-File
- changed the default Backup directory from 'cfg_backups'
to 'Backups' because i write Backups of LoS to this
Folder too

renaming Logic

~ Bugfix: implemeted config handling like in updater
~ Bugfix: on first finding of a string an item(dir/file)
get added to the renaming list and i will no longer
search for other strings. This prevent from sensless
and timeconsuming searching and a lot error output.
Be aware that you have to enter longer before shorter strings.
Example: Filename => aaaa123.txt
add the string 'aaaa' before 'aaa'
else you get a123.txt and not 123.txt
- Time messurements between v2.5 and v2.6
Did testing with 390 Files and 129 Folders

renamerV2updater v0.2.6.4580.29501 (16.07.2012)
~ Bugfix: set now defaults and then read the config
so it isn't important if a value is set or not in
rV2-default.cfg - before, i setted defaults only if no
configfile was available. So no defaults for new
settings get set. This caused the updater not closing
himself in autoupdate mode. In next release of
renamerV2 the config get handled the same way.
renamerV2 v2.6.4580.27728 (16.07.2012)

- new Feature -> Folderer
It creates subfolders in a given folder depending on
the files within and moves a file to the created
subfolder (to make this recursive it is neccessary to
begin at the lowest level and working upward cuz else
there is a possibility for a infinity loop and this is
not planned to implement in nearest future). I
recommend to make a backup before using this new
feature.
renamerV2 v2.3.4303.34746 (13.10.2011)
