Feature requests (rename commands / tag devices / groups)

[JaneX8]

Finally some good software for this hardware. Even Broadlink can't manage that on their own hardware. Great software, thanks a lot! I have two features in mind that could make it even better. Maybe you could consider to:

• Rename a command after being created
• Rename the device so not only the MAC / IP is shown but a custom name
• Also it would be great if commands can be grouped per "subdevice". Now I use an underscore for that. Such as TV_power, TV_volumeup, amplifier_power, you get it.

Again, great work! Thanks a lot.

I'm really quite busy this time of year so it's going to take me a bit to get to those.

My home automation system uses these commands and so renaming them breaks things, which is why I don't let them be changed, just create new ones, I'll give that some thought. In the mean time you can rename the individual file the command is stored in.

Can't agree more on what @ElleshaHackett wrote:

Good job @rob121! I find it very useful. In the future, if possible, I'd love to see an option to choose/configure command prefix (the one used in url) - "cmd" at the moment. For years I've been using rmbridge (thumbs up Jochen!), which is good but requires additional hw for android, and my whole automation uses "code" string in REST calls, thus my migration was a bit painful.

Not a big deal, it is just a suggestion for new feature, as at the time I was able to manage some proxies/redirects internally on my rpi3, so I can live with it!

Again - thank you for your great work.

Great job @rob121! I have been using this for months and it is really sensational! Now I am planning to buy a new broadlink rm pro but here there is only the new version available (4c). Do you happen to know whether it is compatible? Thanks
