=head1 NAME

vidir - edit directory

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<vidir> [--verbose] [directory|file|-] ...

=head1 DESCRIPTION

vidir allows editing of the contents of a directory in a text editor. If no
directory is specified, the current directory is edited. 

When editing a directory, each item in the directory will appear on its own
numbered line. These numbers are how vidir keeps track of what items are
changed. Delete lines to remove files from the directory, or
edit filenames to rename files. You can also switch pairs of numbers to
swap filenames.

Note that if "-" is specified as the directory to edit, it reads a list of
filenames from stdin and displays those for editing. Alternatively, a list
of files can be specified on the command line.
