Rnr: CLI tool to batch rename files and directories
There are a lot of tools dedicated to this. My past favourite is vimv [1].
However, for me this operation is so rare that having a separate command just for mass-renaming files does not seem to be justified.

Tell ONE terminal app you use everyday but no one seems know about the app
I find myself using vimv quite a lot as I need to rename files on regular basis. It's a bulk renamer that uses vim. I also just created a similar tool for bulk removing files virm. The motivation was that one time when I opened vimv and deleted a line and expected it to delete that file xD.

The Gems of Moreutils
I just learned about vidir [1]. Emacs Dired [2] can rename & delete files by editing the buffer directly, and let's say I was thrilled when I saw someone replicated that behavior as a general Unix tool.

New file explorer: oil.nvim, a modern take on vim-vinegar/vidir
If this sounds familiar, that's because it was not my idea! Almost one year ago exactly, dirbuf.nvim was announced and it blew my mind. From what I can tell, the idea for dirbuf actually came from an earlier plugin called vidir, but this was the first time I'd seen it and, to be fair, its execution is fantastic.
- What's the best command in Linux or windows that you have used and it turned out to be really awesome and helpful .

dirbuf.nvim: A file manager which let's you edit your filesystem like you edit text
You navigate Dirbuf with your cursor, pressing enter to open a file/directory. Editing in Dirbuf works like vidir where, when you edit a directory, you get a list of the files, directories, etc. in that directory and can edit them like text. Then when you save the buffer, all the files and directories you added get created, everything you copied gets copied, everything you renamed gets renamed, and everything you deleted gets deleted.
What are some alternatives?
