Re: Renaming files in directory A with filenames in directory B
XFCE's Bulk Renamer can easily achieve this. There are probably more tools, but as XFCE user, this is the one quickly coming to my mind: https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/4.10/ ... amer/start

Re: Forum and server updates - Moving, fixes, and new admins.
Finally some love injected in our good ol' forum :mrgreen: I like the new flat board style being mainly grey'ish with a slight touch of color. It would be perfection if orange would be replaced by pink to be close to our Debian logo 8) And if possible, reducing the default font size a little bit of ...

Re: What does your desktop look like?
I tried out a new Stretch install with the Xfce desktop on a now 12 year old laptop that took me through college back in the day just to amuse myself during the lockdown here in Ireland.

Some do show reliably; Dropbox, Skype and Slack are fine. Connman does not show but as with the others either Network or Wi...
