Changing the name of an external file

Hi,

Is it possible to change the name of an external file with an action?

There maybe a MUCH easier way, but this is what i can think of.

Hope this help : )

It's a pleasure, but be careful, because if you enter a new name for the file, and there is already a file with the same name, then it will still delete the old file. Rather add script to check if the new filename does exist, if not, then it can copy the file.

Hope you understand : )

I do also believe that lgafilesys plugin has a renaming function under Folder and File operations.
