Rtries to give buffer an unique name, and that's the closest thing to it.) However,% mallows to mark by a regexp that matches the mode name, and* Mmarks all buffers with a specified major mode. It seems thatrename-bufferisn't bound to anyhting in ibuffer, and without binding it yourself, you'd have to call it withM-x rename-buffer. – user12563 May 24 '17 at 15:15define-ibuffer-opandibuffer-do-rename-uniquely. – politza May 24 '17 at 15:27
