+#+findex: denote-dired-rename-file
+Denote's file-naming scheme is not specific to notes or text files: it
+is useful for all sorts of files, such as multimedia and PDFs that form
+part of the user's longer-term storage
([[#h:4e9c7512-84dc-4dfb-9fa9-e15d51178e5d][The file-naming scheme]]). While
+Denote does not manage such files, it already has all the mechanisms to
+facilitate the task of renaming them.
+
+To this end, invoke ~denote-dired-rename-file~ when point is over a file
+in Dired to rename it. The commaand prompts for a =TITLE= and
+=KEYWORDS= the same way the ~denote~ command does it
([[#h:17896c8c-d97a-4faa-abf6-31df99746ca6][Points of entry]]).
+It finally asks for confirmation before renaming the file at point.
+
+The file type extension (e.g. =.pdf=) is read from the underlying file
+and is preserved in the renaming process. Files that have no extension
+are simply left without one.
+
+Renaming only occurs relative to the current directory. Files are not
+moved between directories.
