Re:Renaming files with mv without typing the name two times by xorcist on Tuesday April 14, 2020 @06:59AM (#22864563)
Interactive editing is generally something to avoid. It can't be part of a bash script, or a puppet manifest, or checked into version control.

In the cases where you need to do interactive edits of file names, something like emacs or mc is probably less error prone than bash.
