#   This little script enables you to ``edit an ls'',
#   i.e. it will load a list of filenames into your
#   favourite editor (presumably vi).  Any changes to
#   the filenames will result in renaming the respective
#   files.
#
#   Notes:
#    - Do not change the numbers in the first column,
#      unless you know exactly what you're doing.
#    - If you remove an entire line, the corresponding
#      file will _not_ be deleted.  It just remains
#      untouched.
#    - You can use any character in filenames, with one
#      special case:  backslashes have to be specified
#      twice.
#    - If there are any filename collisions, you will
#      be asked if overwriting the first file is OK.
#    - Do not try to exchange the filenames of two or
#      more files.  It won't work.
#    - If you want to edit the filenames of certain
#      files only, you can specify them on the command
#      line (the default is ``*'').
