rename a filename by pasting from clipboard

(1/1)

meifaiau:
I suggest to add a function to rename by pasting from clipboard.

My idea is as follows:
1) copy a filename by pressing [Control-C] outside Multi-Commander,
2) highlight the file to be renamed inside Multi-Commander,
3) click the icon to rename by pasting from clipboard
4) a dialogue box appears asking for confirmation. You have the chance to modify the filename, to change the extension. Press [OK] to rename or press [Cancel] to abort.

Thanks.

Hi.
I beleive it's already possible via multiscript and custom button. Edit an existing or make a new button like this:
Command type: Mutli-Script
Write this code in the field:

--- Code: ---@var $textClip = GetClipboardText();
MC.Explorer.Makedir FOLDERNAME={$textClip}
--- End code ---
This command is for making a new directory, but it's easy to modify it to renaming, just change makedir to renameing function.
