At the command line, one can rename a file by specifying the entire new name to
mv
mv oldname newname
or using a regex with e.g. Perl's file-rename
command.
rename -d 's/old/new/' oldname
But is it possible to interactively rename a file by manually moving a cursor and changing bits of it, like when one renames a file in a file manager?
