@ayoisaiah/f2 v2.1.2

F2 is a cross-platform command-line tool for batch renaming files and directories quickly and safely. Written in Go!

What does F2 do differently?

Compared to other renaming tools, F2 offers several key advantages:

• Dry Run by Default: It defaults to a dry run so that you can review the renaming changes before proceeding.

• Variable Support: F2 allows you to use file attributes, such as EXIF data for images or ID3 tags for audio files, to give you maximum flexibility in renaming.

• Comprehensive Options: Whether it's simple string replacements or complex regular expressions, F2 provides a full range of renaming capabilities.

• Safety First: It prioritizes accuracy by ensuring every renaming operation is conflict-free and error-proof through rigorous checks.

• Conflict Resolution: Each renaming operation is validated before execution and detected conflicts can be automatically resolved.

• High Performance: F2 is extremely fast and efficient, even when renaming thousands of files at once.

• Undo Functionality: Any renaming operation can be easily undone to allow the easy correction of mistakes.

• Extensive Documentation: F2 is well-documented with clear, practical examples to help you make the most of its features without confusion.
