| == Renaming Multiple Files ==
| |
| | |
| There are times when you need to rename a large number of files or folders at the same time. This is often referred to as "batch renaming," and can be accomplished a number of ways.

| === With Dolphin ===
| |
| | |
| Dolphin has a ability to rename multiple files by numbering them, though the functionality is currently limited and only useful in certain situations. One useful application would be renaming a set of photos.
| |
| | |
| Select the files you wish to rename, then right-click on one of them and select "Rename..." (or simply press "F2"). You will be presented with a dialogue where you may specify what you want the files to be named.

| The '#' symbol anywhere within the file name will be replaced with a number, starting with '1' for the first file and continuing up for each file after that.

I am a Fine Arts major from Ontario, Canada. I also have an interest in computers and graphic design. I started playing with Linux around 2002 and have been using it as my primary operating for about 2-3 years now. I currently run Arch Linux because of the level of control and configurability it, along with KDEmod (a modular set of KDE packages), provides.
