Help Wanted



Translation:



Download GPRename, extract it and go into the locale directory. Use the template file to translate it then send it on the mailing list at: gprename-users@lists.sourceforge.net



Note that some strings have a underscore ( _ ), use it as a mnemonics, which is a letter underlined and you can call it with ALT-letter in the application. And, of course, don't underline 2 times the same letter.






To Do



Recursive options to implement



Create an RPM of the latest version available.



Ask the Gnome team if they need a renamer, KDE has one (KRename), XFCE has one (Thunar), that is, if they accept software in GTK2-Perl, then we could always rename GPRename to GRename.



Optimize the code, at over 6000 files GPRename doesn't respond very well.
