There actually is such an option available in the settings.

Not a big deal. I re-uploaded .22 now, and after renaming, it should not re-download the file.

It starts at "Example 3: Monitor Firefox".

Well, you can read on

@CybTekSol: So...where's the Softpedia template, eh? Regarding submission of Ketarin: I'll submit it to a couple of sites when we reach 1.0.

I'd recommend you the extensive tutorial: http://cdburnerxp.se/help/kb/20

So....you want that if an arbitrary application renames a file after it has been updated, Ketarin does not download it again? If so, there'd have to be a way to let Ketarin know about the new location. Going through all files in the folder and checking their MD5s is not efficient.

It'll be fine though as long as it are improvements "unter the hood" and no features that clutter the GUI. If small changes open up a whole new range of possibilities, I'm open to it

So...if that is what you want to do, don't you have anything you need? You could just use some if...then...else stuff as command (using variables scraped by Ketarin, like an MD5 value) and let your 3rd party tools do whatever is necessary. Or am I missing something here? I certainly don't mind if Ketarin is more versatile in the end than intended, but I'm a programmer so you should use more straight talk

Well, if two files have the same MD5 or SHA1 hashes, it is actually *highly* unlikely that they have a different content, even though it is possible in theory. CRC is somewhat less reliable though. Maybe, is all you want that Ketarin does not redownload a file after it has been updated and manually renamed?

Sorry, but I don't get it. First you talk about MD5, then you talk about renaming {appname}_{version}.{url:ext} and as far as I can understand, you see some kind of relation there. Please try to explain me what you intend to do with fewer and more concise sentences

It's not convenient to get yourself 3rd party tools and try to create that functionality manually.

Doesn't the log window contain the necessary information?

Yes, you can, but it's not convenient. Does it mean anything else to you?

Sorry, but I'm not currently sure anymore what "MD5 support" means to you. For me it is just "if hashes do not match, show an error". No more, no less.

Hm...the template does not seem to work with downloads like this one: http://majorgeeks.com/downloadget.php?id=4050&file=5&evp=e5903555dfd0b3afc2b650d62bcb309f It redirects to an HTML link and not to a fileX-server. I guess you'll have to adjust the regex a bit...

I reuploaded 22 now. You can use placeholders like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?> <Jobs> <ApplicationJob xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <DownloadBeta>Avoid</DownloadBeta> <DownloadDate xsi:nil="true" /> <CanBeShared>true</CanBeShared> <ShareApplication>false</ShareApplication> <HttpReferer /> <Variables> <item> <key> <string>version</string> </key> <value> <UrlVariable> <VariableType>RegularExpression</VariableType> <Regex><title>\|MG\| [a-z| ]+([\d|.| ||-||_|a-z]+)</title></Regex> <Url><placeholder name="Application Info Page URL from Major Geeks" /></Url> <Name>version</Name> </UrlVariable> </value> </item> <item> <key> <string>redir1</string> </key> <value> <UrlVariable> <VariableType>RegularExpression</VariableType> <Regex><A href="(downloadget.php\?id=[\d]+&file=[\d][\d]&[a-z]+=[\d|a-z]+)"></Regex> <Url><placeholder name="Application Info Page URL from Major Geeks" /></Url> <Name>redir1</Name> </UrlVariable> </value> </item> <item> <key> <string>url</string> </key> <value> <UrlVariable> <VariableType>RegularExpression</VariableType> <Regex>URL=(http://files[\d].majorgeeks.com/files/[\d|a-z]+/[a-z]+/[a-z|\d|_|.]+)"></Regex> <Url>http://majorgeeks.com/{redir1}</Url> <Name>url</Name> </UrlVariable> </value> </item> </Variables> <ExecuteCommand /> <Category></Category> <SourceType>FixedUrl</SourceType> <DeletePreviousFile>false</DeletePreviousFile> <Enabled>true</Enabled> <FileHippoId /> <LastUpdated xsi:nil="true" /> <TargetPath>C:\DownLoad\Latest DownLoads\[iNSERT SUB-PATH HERE]\[iNSERT NAMING PREFERENCE HERE].[iNSERT FILE EXTENSION HERE]</TargetPath> <FixedDownloadUrl>{url}</FixedDownloadUrl> <Name><placeholder name="Application name" /></Name> </ApplicationJob> </Jobs>

I'm not very interested in this additional amount of work currently. Especially since ohloh already lists all changes automatically. Maybe after 1.0

What exactly are "scrape results"?

For now, I think that just adding an MD5/SHA1/CRC feature would be much better. "Ketarin commands" would be quite some amount of work and might not be useful currently.

Well, then that's what the placeholders were meant for

Template creation? Currently, you'll have to do it manually anyway. I'd rather not want templates within the online database, there'd have to be a separate place. The forum should be fine for now.

BTW, I think you should post templates with [ code ] tags.

This time with multi line editor Also, global variables will be replaced automatically before uploading them to the online database. Note: In the previous versions (< 21), there has been a bug so that the "Share this application" checkbox state was not restored correctly. So if you shared an application, you'll most likely have to set that checkbox one more time with the latest version, so that updates to your application definitions are uploaded. http://ketarin.canneverbe.com/downloads/Ketarin/Ketarin-0.9.9.22.zip I think that this release should be quite close to 1.0 now. Currently, I'd consider importing templates as a further addition. You'd define a template by inserting <placeholder name="..." /> elements, and then Ketarin would ask the user to enter values for those before importing.

Sorry, talking nonsense. I'll fix it for the next version.
