ok, first up is digital photos, where I might have a folder full of pix
named "DCS0098.jpg, DCS0099.jpg, DCS0100.jpg" etc etc & I might wanna select
say 4 of them & rename them to "simon1.jpg, simon2.jpg, etc"

I know I can rename them & then add an extension as a separate operation,
but..

secondly I might have a folder with different types of files with various
names, eg "index.html, DCS0099.jpg, nav.gif" etc etc I might wanna select
say 4 of them & rename them to "simon.html, simon.jpg, simon.gif" etc

am I asking too much?

cheers
