And for rename too only one object is taken into account...
I agree the 'rename <what> to <what>' makes more sense. I'll try to 
implement that that way. But i will enforce the use of the ' to separate 
names, even if you can use partial names of course :-)
Or use both syntaxes, based on the presence of ' or not
Hum, but would 'rename <what>' make sense to erase the custom name?? 
Else i can simply add some other command to erase the custom name...

I try to be keyboard prone, yeah :-) (since it's easier for playing CF imo)
And as i said right now i don't feel like messing with the client (yet)

Ok, pretty straightforward to check.
I'll fix my code & send some more patches when it's ready :-)
