Move files and directories using the default text editor to define the filenames. More information: <https://www.nongnu.org/renameutils/>.
-
Move a single file (open an editor with the source filename on the left and the target filename on the right):
qmv source_file -
Move multiple JPG files:
qmv *.jpg -
Move multiple directories:
qmv -d path/to/directory1 path/to/directory2 path/to/directory3 -
Move all files and directories inside a directory:
qmv --recursive path/to/directory -
Move files, but swap the positions of the source and the target filenames in the editor:
qmv --option swap *.jpg -
Rename all files and folders in the current directory, but show only target filenames in the editor (you can think of it as a kind of simple mode):
qmv --format=do .
