I have two files:
File1: mypath\myfile.jpg

File2: otherpath\othername.jpg

Want: rename othername.jpg to myfile_modified.jpg
and
move this renamed file to mypath

Anyone got an idea how this could be achieved in Imatch (other than by an app)

If we could use (global) variables in the renamer and metadata templates this could be accomplished.



Background:

On Android there is an app called Remini which takes a photo and enhances it.
(Very good for old scanned images with faces). This app returns the photo
with some name. Once I have that image back in Imatch I have to above problem of
renaming and moving. I'm doing it manually but, lazy as I am, I am looking
for an automated way.
