The WHY is pretty obvious - Psychopath doesn't want to follow
Rockhound's fate.
I always download the headers and the Translation file and since I use
agent I hit K (short for keep) on any I'm interested in downloading
and delete the rest of the headers, then highlight the range and hit A
(meaning download all)
When I have all the 'kept' documents in my download folder I highlight
the lot then right click to unRAR them. Doing the same with ZIP should
work equally well.
At that point it's go through the download folder and move the ones
you keep to where you want them to go and delete the rest.
I have reservations with some of the stuff he uploads (way too much
romance novels / literary porn!) but he uploads plenty of other stuff
so why slag a guy for uploading a lot of stuff I don't care about?
What ** I'd ** like is a .bat file or something similar that would
auto-move everything from component subdirectories into a single
folder rather than having to go through each archive and move
everything around. For instance there was one recently that contained
the entire NY Times Bestseller list each in it's own subdirectory -
and since it was Top 10 for Fiction and Non-Fiction that meant 20
folders.... (I've got back to my pre-Windows files to see if I could
write such a bat file that worked recursively but have failed
miserably)
