NAME

renwd - REName current (Working) Directory

VERSION

This document describes version 0.006 of renwd (from Perl distribution App-renwd), released on 2021-11-15.

SYNOPSIS

This is a script to do the simple:

% mv ../curdirname ../newname

except with one convenience: tab completion. If you activate tab completion for this script (e.g. via complete -C renwd renwd), then you can do:

% renwd <Tab>

and the current directory name is completed for you to edit/modify/

Pro-tip: install this bash function to be able to rename current directory as well as cd to the new directory (tab completion is also provided):

# function definition
renwd-cd ()
{
    local dir=`renwd --print -- "$1" 2>/dev/null`
    if [[ "$dir" = "" ]]; then echo "Failed"; else cd "../$dir"; fi
}

# activate tab completion
complete -C renwd renwd-cd

Afterwards, you can:

% renwd-cd foo<Tab>

COMPLETION

This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.

bash

To activate bash completion for this script, put:

complete -C renwd renwd

in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is recommended, however, that you install modules using cpanm-shcompgen which can activate shell completion for scripts immediately.

tcsh

To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:

complete renwd 'p/*/`renwd`/'

in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.

It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).

other shells

For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
