`bulkrename` is a tool for renaming large numbers of files.
`bulkrename` accepts file paths either via command line arguments or via
standard input. When invoked, `bulkrename` opens a file in `EDITOR` with the
input paths. After user exits `EDITOR`, `bulkrename` will rename all the input
files using the file names from the file as their new names.
If you are familiar with the `bulkrename` command of the
[Ranger](https://github.com/ranger/ranger) file manager, this program works
basically the same way.
