cyclotis04 Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 When saving to a file as the download location, could there be an option to automatically append the correct file extension? Save to file is a useful option for applications originally called "setup.exe" or the like, but sometimes I rename the file to ".exe" when it's actually a ".zip" or ".msi" and it screws it up and I have to fiddle around until I figure out what it actually is. I would like to be able to specify "...\AppSetup" and then let Ketarin automatically append the correct file extension to it, to avoid this problem.

andreone Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 You could use built-in variables for that: {url:basefile}{version}.{url:ext} if download url is aaaaaaa/bbbbb/myfile.myext then {url:basefile}= myfile {url:ext} = myext Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclotis04 Posted April 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Thanks! This is pretty much exactly what I wanted. Are there other built in variables? (Word of warning: {version} is NOT a built in variable unless you're using a FileHippo ID) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
