Rename and TAB key to close

In windows when a file name has been opened to rename, closing with the TAB key will
1. Complete the rename
2. Open the next file ready for renaming.
This doesn't happen in free commander even though I have opted for windows style processing.
This is a huge labour saving feature when doing a large number of changes to file names.
Currently I have no option but to go back to using windows explorer
