You're welcome.
Though, I just realized it also renames R buffers (as it is bound to comint
mode). I'll have to make some exceptions there.
As well, it does not handle (yet) the problem of two Shell buffers in the same
directory, as the name won't be unique. Not sure what's the most
straightforward approach for this one. Maybe looking at `uniquify' or so.
Best regards,
Seb
