  • edir

    Program to rename, remove, and copy files and directories using your editor

  • Here's my version: https://github.com/bulletmark/edir. It also does copies, git renames, optional trash etc.

  • batchy.vim

    A little plugin to perform batch operations on files

  • If we're talking alternatives, then my batchy.vim is pretty nice, even if I say so myself. The biggest downside is that it's very Vim-specific.
