Renomme
Renomme is a small utility I developed for PC over 20 years ago. It makes it easy to do something Windows doesn't handle very well: batch-renaming files for cataloging purposes (among other things).

Published in Réponses Photo, October 2005
The specialist magazine Réponse Photo credited Renomme with a Top Purchase and a score of 95/100.

La photo Numérique Sous-Marine October 2004
The first book on digital underwater photography in French has been published. It is the work of Amar and Isabelle Guillen.
The book is accompanied by a CD-Rom on which Renomme appears. An entire page of the book is devoted to Renomme and the software is mentioned several times in the rest of the book.
Compatibles PC magazine of February 2003:
"Article page 110 and 111 on "The rational archiving of your digital images"
The Renomme utility is a model of clarity.
It is free, in French and very well documented.
Some digital cameras give their native files barbaric names... Renomme will take care of everything..."

Bravo FP,
I was looking for a tool to easily rename files
in batches... I tried quite a few...
And finally I came across yours!
Brilliant! Simple! Fast! and in French.
Thank you
