```

# Methods provided
- [x] **random:** Sample a u8, uniformly distributed over ASCII letters and numbers: a-z, A-Z and 0-9. `9AFoh, wGRLC, knj9y, ...`
- [x] **uuid:** Uuid4. `de2662a9-fb02-4686-b556-0aca36c0e087`
- [x] **time:** Local time now. `2023-03-04-22-26-42-222655555`
- [x] **num:** Numbers start from `--start` (1 by default). `1, 2, 3, ...`
- [x] **znum:** Numbers with left zero padding start from `--start` (1 by default). `001, 002, 003, ...`
- [x] **prefix:** Add a prefix string to the file stem, along with a delimiter. `X.jpg => [--with][--delimiter]X.jpg`
- [x] **append:** Append a delimiter and a string after the file stem. `X.jpg => X[--delimiter][--with].jpg`
# Note that
Renify will set `--indiscriminate false` to make sure that the file stems stay consistent. This means that if you have files with the same stems in the same folder, they'll still look the same even after you rename them. Certainly, you can use `--indiscriminate` to treat each file as an independent entity without considering its relationship with other files.
