That's pretty useful. I wish there was a help file or wiki page that described this stuff.
I think when the Regular expression option is ticked in the dialog, the hint text should change to mention back references.
Does not work for me.

Enumerate does not refer to regular expression back reference. The verb enumerate means to count and name each item in a list. E.g., %n replaces with 1, 2, 3, …; %00n replaces with 001, 002, 003, …. and so on.

How exactly is enumerate supposed to work?
Also, when regular expression box is ticked, the hint text does not change for me.

That is strange and may be a separate bug, this strange behavior when the find field is left empty.
You'd normally enter what you want to find and what you want to replace it with. And instead of static text you can replace it with an automatic increasing number, an enumeration. Like this:
In the screenshot I have a set of files all with a name "somename something .txt" and I instruct Bulky to find the "name something " part and replace it with a 3 digit enumeration. The *
in name*
is a wildcard meaning zero or more characters (and as Bulky is set to replace name only the wildcard doesn't match the file extension).
And you can mix this with static text. For example if you want to rename all the "somename something .txt" files to "newname 3 digits.txt" like this:

I meant: I think this is an oversight and that this isn't programmed yet. That the hint text is static and it isn't programmed yet to change it based on context.

Oh, my mistake.
