I have a season of a show downloaded and every episode filename ends with information about the video ([1080p], [Dual Audio], etc). I would like to use Ctrl-V to simply rename all of the files at once, but this seems to be harder than I feel it should...



For starters, I hit the:
'E21: Cannot make changes, 'modifiable' is off'
To which I enter:
:set ma



Then upon editing said files I'm greeted with the:
'W10: Warning: Changing a readonly file'



This seems to be quite inconvenient for me.
Any solutions y'all can point me towards? Much appreciated!

  • So you're looking to rename files in netrw or NerdTree? It might be better to use perl rename.
