File Filter List (Import?)

Is there a way to import a file inclusion/exclusion list into OE? Alternatively, can one of the .dat files be modified to do this?

If importing a list to be used as a download filter is not an option (as it appears not to be) suggest adding this as a feature in an upcoming edition. The site that I am downloading contains too many files (i.e., ######.zip) to download them all ...and there is not enough variation in the filenames to specificy a filename filter (e.g., 000001.zip, 000002.zip,...). It would be easier if I could import a list of say 1000 filenames that OE could work on.

Thanks, -Josh E.

What about something like 000{0-9}{0-9}{0-9}.zip ?

If you want to import a list, you can use Copy/Paste operations with one keyword per line. Press Ctrl-V in the corresponding list. But first please upgrade your oe.exe file to the latest version:

http://www.metaproducts.com/download/betas/oep1978.zip

Also, processing so many keywords in URL Filters may slow down files processing (parsing) a lot.
