I need to copy some files to an USB stick (FAT). The problem is, the
files have a ":" on their names, and Thunar (XFCE) says the name is
invalid, but does not offer as an option to change the name.
So the question is: do you know a file browser that does offer to
change the name, or even better, changes the name automatically?
I only use konqueror and dolphin, but if it were me, I'd just write a
script:
dest=$1
while read f
do
    cp -a $f $dest/${f//:/_}
done <filelist
Not bad :-)

But the mc solution from David Haller is very neat. Mark the files to
copy, F2, F.
