v1.5.6

Various improvements and bug fixes.

Allow moving files to sub-directories

This release allows moving files to sub-directories by adding a directory before a filename. For example, this

one.txt
two.txt
three.txt

renamed to this:

a/one.txt
a/two.txt
b/three.txt

will move the files "one.txt" and "two.txt" to the directory "a", and "three.txt" to the "b". If any of these directories do not exist they will be automatically created.

Bug fixes and new options

• Handles more edge cases and fixes various bugs. In particular, it is now possible to rename something like files 0.jpg, 1.jpg to 1.jpg, 2.jpg (previously, that wouldn't work) or to swap the names of two files.
• Added option "include_directories" to allow including/excluding directories from text buffer.
• Added option "include_header" to allow including/excluding instruction header from text buffer.
• Added command massren --help --config to list possible config values and defaults.

Option to delete to trash or not, performance improvement

With this release it is possible to make it optional to delete a file to trash. Also some minor performance improvement when deleting many files simultaneously.

New delete feature

This release adds support for the delete feature. If a file in the text buffer is preceded by "//", it will be deleted. In OSX and Windows it will be moved to the trash/recycle bin so that it can be recovered. Currently, on Linux, it will be permanently deleted.

Improved text editor support

• Added support for EDITOR environment variable, if present.
• Added support for text editor arguments (eg. "subl -n")
