Hello all.

Here is an improved (IMO) version of my man reader script.

This one :
-- can now go online if the page is not on your machine.
For French-speaking users: http://jp.barralis.com/linux-man
For English-speaking users: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages

-- offers to display the page in txt format, single spaced, via less, or the customary
double-spaced html man page;

-- applies ANSI codes to messages.

Enjoy.

Hello all.

Please find attached the very convenient RenameUtilities, compiled for slacko /
slackster, 32 bits, from the source at https://www.nongnu.org/renameutils.

In particular, the qmv command this set contains allows the user to rename a set
of files using a text editor. You are of course encouraged to try out and use the other
utilities in the package.

A ready-made script called qmv.sh is provided in /root/my-applications/bin.

Usage:
In console, "cd" to the directory that contains the file(s) you wish to rename and
type qmv.sh. The leafpad editor pops up with the file names, and you're in an
easy position to edit them. When finished, you save your changes, exit the editor,
and the qmv utility does the renaming. This is a very cleverly designed app.

Enjoy.
