edfp

edit file paths

---

WIP

Currently this program does behave as described below, but maybe not as you would expect in all cases.

Usage

ls | edfp

edfp reads stdin, assumes each line is a path to a file object (file or directory) and allows for easy manipulation of those objects.

1. Changing the name of the file will rename it.
2. Clearing the line will delete it.

Example

$ mkdir playground && cd playground
$ touch a b c
$ ls
a b c
$ ls | edfp

Your VISUAL (or EDITOR if unset) program of choice will be opened with each line representing a file path:

a
b
c

Let's say you edit it to this:

x

y

Write and quit your editor. You'll be prompted like so:

DELETE the following files:

        b

RENAME the following files:

        a → x
        c → y

Would you like to make the changes described above (y/n)?

Type y and hit enter!

$ ls
x y

You renamed a → x and c → y and deleted b. Good job!
