Unlike basically all file renaming tools I +have seen online, this utility does lot limit you to using specific built-in +functions which offer only part of the functionality one might need. This +utility also tries to be as safe as possible — you would be amazed at how many +file renaming tools lose your data when you try something as simple as swapping +two files. + +## Installation + +Installation is very easy. This is written in Rust, so it’s assumed you have +`cargo` installed on your system. + +``` +$ make +$ sudo make install +``` + +## Examples and Documentation + +To avoid repeating myself everywhere, if you would like to see usage examples +and documentation I highly suggest reading the [included manual page][1] or +reading the extended documentation [on my website][2]. + +## Contributions + +Contributions, feedback, and suggestions are always welcome! You are free to +open GitHub issues, email me, or do whatever else you want. I do ask however +that contributions be made either on [sourcehut][3] or via [`git send-email`][4] +to [~mango/public-inbox@lists.sr.ht][5]. The git repositories on GitHub and my +own personal site exist purely as read-only mirrors. + +[1]: mmv.1 +[2]: https://thomasvoss.com/prj/mmv +[3]: https://sr.ht/~mango/mmv +[4]: https://git-send-email.io/ +[5]: mailto:~mango/public-inbox@lists.sr.ht -- cgit v1.2.3
