Please write any program ideas you have difficulty on creating or want to develop with others

I'm planning on digging into an automatic file renaming program that allows a torrent file to be dragged onto a dock or start bar icon to instantly rename the file by removing all unnecessary characters, standardizing television season and episode numbering, and looking up episode name to add. Later, I might add video conversion to HEVC mp4.

You might take a look at the topic here: https://qb64.freeforums.net/thread/18/hard-drive-folder-organization-tool

It basically does what you're seeking to do, but I wrote it primarily with my ebooks in mind for automatic name formatting in line of AUTHOR -- SERIES SERIES-NUMBER -- BOOK TITLE...

So my collection looks like:
J. R. R. Tolkien -- The Lord of the Rings 01 -- The Fellowship of the Ring.txt
J. R. R. Tolkien -- The Lord of the Rings 02 -- The Two Towers.txt

Makes it quick and simple to sort and track related series.  (Though in some cases, I rearrange the output order, like when multiple authors contribute to the same series, so the ordering is easier for me to track.) 

It may be a suitable place for you to start from with your project.  ;)

I liked the idea of writing an operating system in QB64 (QB64-DOS?).
But it would be a huge project.
