→ Allow renaming files and moving them to another directory
→ Added some icons to identify file types
→ Added random number pattern {rand}
→ Added refresh option, to reload files and directories
→ Added autopreview option
→ Add option to fix duplicated symbols on filename
→ Add option to ignore next errors while renaming
→ Better explanations on error dialogs
→ New icon
A Deb archive fur Ubuntu is available for download too.
