qmv

Move files and directories using the default text editor to define the filenames.

• Move a single file (open an editor with the source filename on the left and the target filename on the right):

qmv {source_file}

• Move multiple JPG files:

qmv {*.jpg}

• Move multiple directories:

qmv -d {path/to/directory1} {path/to/directory2} {path/to/directory3}

• Move all files and directories inside a directory:

qmv --recursive {path/to/directory}

• Move files, but swap the positions of the source and the target filenames in the editor:

qmv --option swap {*.jpg}
