When renaming _all_ files in a folder with a new folder name in a pattern like "%artist%\%year% %album%\num(%track%,2). %artist% - %title%" it would be convenient if all non-music files (e.g. cover images) are also moved to the new folder (after a prompt?).

If the old folder becomes empty it could be deleted as well.

And current directory in Mp3tag should also change to the new folder path (or at least file list should be updated to reflect new actual folder content).

First of all, as this is my first post here,

THANX FOR THIS AWESOME PIECE OF SOFTWARE (had to shout that one out, sorry _smile_)

/ontopic

this would be a very good feature, as it would save a lot of time searching and comparing new and old folders and manually moving images, etc.

so please, if there is a possibility of including this feature, do so, dear mr. programmer

Cheers

PS: this feature would make me donate money, as this tool rocks my world lately 🙂
