Awesome ty very much - and thank you for the time and dedication to do the work you have... quick question - I've downloaded opus works without issue - 60 day trial is nice but a bummer.
How hard would it be to have your script work with totalcomander? the only nag screen totalcomander has is press button 1,2 or 3 for however long you may want to use it for.
Totalcomander in my humble opinion is the go to file browser - has ftp a reasonably good renamer in it already but lacking the functions of better renamers. Twin view etc etc etc ...
