Oil/mini.file like file rename/mv
I really like the ranger like way of explorer the fs and extention_mapping
One thing I missing is the file rename in bulk like oil or mini.file.
If it's possible to add those functionality?
Hi @LintaoAmons When you say
rename in bulk like oil or mini.file
do you mean that you'd like to be able to manipulate the file system by editing the buffer, like those plugins (in other words, by just changing buffer text and hitting :w), or just that you'd like bulk rename in some capacity in Triptych?
The only way I could think to implement it in Triptych is to present the user with a series of input prompts, one at a time, for each selected file/folder. Which doesn't feel very "bulk" :/
Perhaps to allow select multiple files and open a new buffer with them to rename them.

🤔 A generic "select" binding would make sense. Perhaps along with an "add to quickfix list". This would be very powerful, as it would allow users to perform any operations on files and directories
I've racked my brain about this and done some experimenting/prototyping, and honestly I haven't been able to come with anything that adds any real adds value to the plugin. Any kind of oil.nvim style functionality would require significant work and refactoring which I don't plan to do at this stage.
As such I'm going to close this issue again
