There's a lot of power in x2 that I use, and even more that I don't or haven't tried to use.

However, the various HELP screens could use a bit up updating. The character range attribute still hasn't been added to the help for the mass rename dialog.

Nice that it pops up when selected from the Special Tokens list, but a quick explanation might be helpful for new users, or for old users that see things as new more often then they might care for.

if you press F1 key in the dialog you get all the information from the manual

Yes very nice to have examples of how to use this syntax, It'll shorten my blind trial and error method considerably.

Thanks.
