We thought that would be the end of it, because it was obvious there was no infringement. (Name Mangler has existed in pretty much its current form since its initial debut as File List, way back in 2005.) We spent the afternoon researching the other app, and eventually sent an email response back to the accuser, clearly demonstrating our innocence through screenshots and app release timelines. Then yesterday, out of the blue, we received an email claiming we’d violated the copyright of another renaming application. We’re incredibly proud of what we built, and have been thrilled with the initial reaction. We focused on speed, the ability to perform more than one renaming action, and some user interface improvements.
#Renamer 4mac update#
This update was user-driven, based on feedback we’ve been tracking since Name Mangler 2 came out.
#Renamer 4mac upgrade#
Two days ago, we launched Name Mangler 3, our first major upgrade to the program in nearly three years. Late in the day on March 1st, we received an explanation/apology from Dietmar Kerschner.Īs far as we’re concerned, the personal side of this matter is now closed.
Posted in How To, Name Mangler | Comments Off on How to: Restore Command+Arrow keys in Name Mangler If you need more specific how-to help, keep reading. If you’re experienced with changing OS X keyboard shortcuts, you just need to assign Previous Configuration and Next Configuration to new shortcuts, and you’re done.
#Renamer 4mac plus#
After changing these shortcuts, the Command plus arrow key shortcuts will work as expected in Name Mangler’s text fields.
The short answer is “we don’t.” In Name Mangler 3, you can’t use those shortcut keys to navigate input boxes, only to navigate history.īut there is an easy solution, for those who prefer these keys in their text field roles: change the keyboard shortcuts for the history browser. Experienced keyboard users will instantly recognize that those are the shortcut keys for jumping to the start and end of text strings in an input box, and may wonder how we have the keys serving both roles. To make it easier to browse your history, we provide two keyboard shortcuts: Command-Left Arrow (previous configuration) and Command-Right Arrow (next configuration). You can access these saved configurations via our history browser: Name Mangler will remember your last 50 (or more, if you change it in prefs) renaming actions. Or if you're good with the scripting, you could write or find some shell scripts to run in terminal to do this kind of renaming too.One of the new features in Name Mangler 3 is a comprehensive history of renaming operations.
I'd bounce out my bounces as eg "my_song", "my_song2" etc to avoid name collisions, and then just at the end of the session or whenever is convenient, drop that folder onto Renamer and hit "Go", and have it rename the bounced files, stripping the version numbering and adding the date/time and whatever else I wanted into the file name automatically. I think it terms of system resources, I'd probably not use a watch folder solution and instead I'd use a renaming utility (I use Renamer for this, but there are others) and have a preset for this set as default. I can think of a couple of solutions, but if you really don't want to do anything manually, I'd probably have a utility watch my bounce folders and automatically rename bounced files with the time/date of the file, or have some batch utility you can easily run to rename them. Logic doesn't have the tagging options in the Bounce dialog you get on for example Export -> All Tracks, where you can do this sort of stuff.
