This plugin for Eye of Gnome allows to rename the currently displayed picture with F2.
- Copy
rename-file.plugin
andrename-file.py
to your user plugin directory. The location of this directory depends on the software version, please see the documentation for details. On Ubuntu 22.04,~/.local/share/eog/plugins
is the correct location:mkdir -p ~/.local/share/eog/plugins cd ~/.local/share/eog/plugins curl -LOO https://github.com/f0k/eog-rename-file/raw/main/rename-file.{plugin,py}
- Start Eye of Gnome, switch to the "Plugins" tab, and enable "Rename current file". If this is not listed, go back to step 1 and try a different plugin location.
Start Eye of Gnome in a terminal with the environment option EOGPLUGIN_DEBUG=1
to enable additional debug logs:
EOGPLUGIN_DEBUG=1 eog
This plugin borrows heavily from Andrew Chadwick's EOGtricks "Bracket Tags" plugin.
