Could I request that Auto Save would REname automatically?

Post by joesloppy »

Hello again, great product, I notice you can have newspro autosave and then pick an option for overwrite... ask, rename, overwrite, or skip. But in Auto save mode, auto-rename doesn't do anything. I would assume it would based on the option to select what you want. I have seen programs that do just that by adding a number, exp...file(1) or file(2). That would be nice as a lot of things are named the same in the groups I download from. Otherwise whats the point of having it there to choose if its not doing it? Thanks again.

Joe.

the point was to reduce mess in the file system.

when you just invoke 'save' - it renames if the option is chosen, in the auto-save mode (since also the watch/auto part is connected there so it is sometimes even not possible to predict what will be marked for download), it leaves all problematic messages for later save.
