fned(1) – filename edit

## SYNOPSIS

fned [-r|--recursive] [-v|--verbose]

-s <separator>|--separator=<separator>

<filenames>

## DESCRIPTION

fned allows you to rename files or directories by editing their name in your favorite <EDITOR>. fned accepts the list of files to be renamed as arguments. The editor is started with a line number and the filename on each line. The line number must be preserved in order for fned to recognize the file as valid. Lines starting with ‘#` are comments.

fned chooses the editor by checking if the <VISUAL> or <EDITOR> environment variables are set and uses its value or falls back to vim as default.

## OPTIONS

* `-r`, `--recursive`:
  If a directory is specified on the command line the directory and
  every file and directory recursively within the directory are
  available for editing.

* `-v`, `--verbose`:
  Verbose output.

* `-s` <separator>, `--separator`=<separator>:
  Use <separator> to separate the line number and the name of the file
  or directory.  A single space is used by default.
