I just joined the list and have not seen prior messages on this, so
maybe the following misses the mark.  But . . . I seem to have just
changed tag names. I sorted by tag, selected all tags of the type I
wanted to change, opened the inspector, and changed the tag in the
"info" section. When I closed the inspector, the tags were indeed
changed. Tag names do not seem to be immutable.


I don't think so. What you describe is effectively deleting a 
tag and replacing it with another.


Try the following. Do as you indicate above but select only one 
item with a tag you want to change. Notice when you complete 
your set of actions above, the tag for the one item you had 
selected is changed but none of the tags for any other item 
which had the same tag have been changed.


If you were truly changing the name of an existing tag, a change 
to that tag on one item would affect all other items. But as you 
can see, this does not occur.

Change Tag names?

Can the names of Tags in Yojimbo be changed as in del.icio.us? I know  
how to create Tags and how to delete Tags, but no way to rename them.
