Double Commander doublecmd any comments

[woodsmoke]

Hi,
I saw a post at OMGUbuntu and remembered that I had "looked at" double commander some time back.

It is in the repos, with a QT interface and GTK interface.

Any comments as to whether you have used it, in terms of whether it will "lose / trash" a file if I inadvertently do something wrong...

In other words, is this one of those things that only CLI people should use or is it new person friendly.

Any comments on which interface would work best with Wiley and Xenial?

I'm not going to jump ship from Dolphin any time soon, but it does have...

Multi re-name...

Dolphin has a " batch rename" which I use.

https://userbase.kde.org/Dolphin/Batch_Rename

and I have a boatload of images that I've taken with my phone and GoPro and thought this might be "just the trick" to do "initial renames" of a lot of files like:

a hundred images with "serial numbers".

I pick out thirty that are from "Key Largo" and rename them so that they can be easily moved to a "Key Largo" folder.

Then, as I use them I can add individual names to the "group name".

Or, is this a complicated way of doing a simple thing.

just installed the "doublecmd-qt" in 16.04 ,,,,,,,,works ok .

I like Dolphin better ,,,,and in split pain mode if thats what I need at the moment .

but it works ,,,,,as far as borking something ,,,,,,,,, you can do that with Dolphin as well .

it should be ok for you to play with ,,,,just be careful and test things with stuff you put their to test on first .

looks a lot like the old "midnight commander"
