Renaming files with keyboard shortcuts
Hi guys!
I was trying to rename various xhtml files inside the epub, when I decided to come here and ask for help. I would like to use only the keyboard, without any clicks. I know I can bulk change names that are sequential (and I use that a lot), but when thats not the case, it can be a really tedius job. I use "F2" to rename the file. After renaming, I press "TAB", so I could go on renaming the next file. The thing is the next file is selected just for a second, then it jumps back to the last edited item (after Calibre updates the book with the last change). So, I need to hit the down arrow key to select the next and press "F2" again. Is there anyway it could work just like on Windows Explorer? I mean, if I hit "TAB", it would select the next file and continue editing? Or maybe, there is some other easier way that I am not aware of... |

sadly no -- the way that the file browser is impemented makes it hard to do what you are asking for.
