I need a live multi rename tool.
The one you can find in double commander, or even better total commander.
The best I could find is renameutils,
which lists all the files and let me edit them in my favorite text editor,
but nothing beats something which is designed to be specifically used to rename.
Is there such a program?
Has to be live and interactive - I have to see the edits I'm doing before hitting the "OK" key.
Has to be in the command line - ncurses, slang, shell. Just not GUI.
Edit:
It's probably doesn't belong here, but super-user:)
Answers would still be welcome.

How about RenameWand? http://renamewand.sourceforge.net/
But you indeed should have tried superuser instead: https://superuser.com/questions/25378/mass-renaming-nix-version

When I worked for my previous company, I used BeyondCompare to compare directories containing codes. After switching to a new company, I became to use Linux. For the same code comparison purpose, I started using tkdiff. But, the GUI of tkdiff is not as good as BeyondCompare, and it seems that tkdiff cannot compare directories with multiple files. Could anyone suggest what would be the best free source comparison tool I can use in Linux environment?
in my work , I use Meld (http://meldmerge.org/)
best Regards!

When I SSH into my server, it has a really long name
user#this-is-a-really-really-really-really-long-server-name:~$
How can I change this to
user#short-name:~$
I'm not sure what to even google for.
Like Matt said. There is similar question on Unix.stackexchange
And you find some Background
here
Modify PS11
PS1="touch me : "
question is if you want to really change the hostname of the server, or only whats displayed at the beginning of the cli.
if you want to change the hostname, you better check specifically for your distribution.
if you only want to change what's displayed at the beginning of the cli, alter the ${PS1} variable via ~/.bashrc (user specific) or /etc/profile (global) or something like that.

I want to do mindmaps which are of the quality of mindmeister that you could include picture and links etc and would be able to export it reasonably well and print it.
I love X-Mind. I don't know if it does what you need, but I only use a small subset of it and still it rocks!
It has a very complete free version that never expires and doesn't contain crapware.
http://www.xmind.net/download/linux/
I prefer Freeplane but FreeMind can do the same things:

like what is X windows,Cygwin,file system
Well, first you have to choose which Linux distribution you wish to use/learn, then you just use that distro's documentation, which normally has allot info.
You can find here some linux beginner lessons: http://www.linux.org/lessons/beginner/toc.html
Finally the best way to learn, besides reading is "getting your hands dirty". Install a distro of your choice and mess with it :)
I think this is a great way to start
