+# Rename A File Through netrw
+
+You can browse files in a directory through Vim using netrw. This can be done
+by _editing_ a directory with Vim:
+
+```bash
+$ vim src/
+```
+
+You'll see a listing of the files and directories in `src`:
+
+```
+app/
+index.js
+README.md
+utils/
+```
+
+You can move your cursor over one of those files and hit `R` to rename it. A
+prompt will appear at the bottom of your Vim session with the file's current
+name spelled out. You can edit inline and then hit enter to apply the renaming.
