fselect VS pipe-rename

Shameless plug: a tool I wrote to manage downloads directory :)

https://github.com/jhspetersson/fselect

Mine alternatives/helpers bringing a new extra functionality are the following: - https://github.com/facebook/pathpicker/ - Facebook PathPicker is a simple command line tool that solves the perpetual problem of selecting files out of bash output. - https://github.com/jhspetersson/fselect - Find files with SQL-like queries - https://github.com/junegunn/fzf - fzf is a general-purpose command-line fuzzy finder.

I really like fselect, which I use more than fd

https://github.com/jhspetersson/fselect

A tiny tool I wrote to search within file piles (mostly unsorted downloads, torrents, and such). I could never remember `find` options, and more advanced queries are a pain. Now one can use some kind of SQL flavor to get the job done.

On Linux, I'd use this: github.com/marcusbuffett/pipe-rename

if you like vim syntax, you might enjoy pipe-renamer. The file list is opened in a text editor, and names actually get modified on 'write'. You can do complex things and see the final result before executing anything.

Press r to rename and ctrl-d to duplicate the path under focus. By default, xplr uses mv to rename and cp to duplicate files. To rename or duplicate multiple paths at-once, you will need to select the paths and invoke the shell by typing : ! and run a custom command on the paths listed in the $XPLR_PIPE_SELECTION_OUT file. Or you can use tools like vidir or pipe-rename. See the batch rename hack.

I really like the approach of pipe-rename (https://github.com/marcusbuffett/pipe-rename) for renaming many files. It's especially convenient for people who can efficiently edit many files in their favorite text editor (so everybody here, I guess).

Main problem: you maybe don't do this kind of operation frequently enough to remember how it's called or how you aliased it.

I was making one then I found the marvelous pipe-rename and I decided I wouldn't be able to do better.

Is it different from https://github.com/marcusbuffett/pipe-rename ?
