Cmdr v0.56.0
Another big one! The highlights:
Wow, this one was quick! My three highlights:
- "Sort by date" improved: the date column now supports three types of sorts: created, added, and last mod.
- Multi-rename: use EXIF info and media tags to put a photo's capture date, a camera model, or a song's artist and track
in file names when renaming. Plus some more fixes to the multi-renames. - NFS: Open your NAS's NFS shares directly, with no system mount. (Alpha version!)
And a lot of fixes. Thanks for the bug reports everyone!
Added
- Connect to NFS shares on a NAS without sudo or a system mount: pick an export from the server's list, browse, copy
both ways, rename, and delete, with folders refreshing when another computer changes them (2a98058, d0927ef,
