[SOLVED] midnight commander: simple popup window to rename a file

Xeratul · 02-23-2013, 10:50 AM

Hi,

On our forum I came to read this thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...e-ques-352117/

But it is not likely what is searched in this thread here.

I would desire to have a simple popup window to rename the file simply.

For instance lfm with <F2> keypress, you get a popup and you can rename. Something similar I would like with mc,a nd not a big window (complex) such as F6-move.

Any help would appreciated.
Have a great day!

Solution is to make localrename which is kinda ok ... well, there are not so much
options since what ever you ask them as wishlist, they wont / dont do it.

into $HOME/.mc/mc.keymap
