Description Benjamín Valero Espinosa 2004-08-19 11:13:38 UTC
This is just a suggestion, but I've seen it in KDE and think it's a good
feature. When you move or copy some file and Overwrite Dialog appears, it gives
you some options, but if you don't want to overwrite, you have to turn back,
rename the file and copy/move it again. If you have a lot of files, it can be
tedious. So it'd be good a new option such as 'Rename file' that suggest a new
name (like appending '(1)' ).

I have this problem when I download images from my digital camera, that are all
named PICTXXX and I haven't renamed the old ones.

Thanks
