highly recent changes

Post by Stretto »

I do a lot of moving files around and I have to rename things. It becomes problematic because I don't know what I just copied(to many names to remember).

What would be really nice is any files that I recently copied to a new directory were highlighted.

All that has to be done is when, say, the last N files were copied/moved, the paths are cached and then any files are highlighted if they exist in the end result.

Since I'm making the copies and moves in XYplorer it knows the files, so it just has to cache them(and it probably does already) and hightlight them appropriately. Should be something very simple.

When a new copy/move is made it will refill the cache.


It could be optional or have a unique highlighting like bold, some odd color, italics, underline, or configurable. When one has thousands or more files in a directory this helps to find what was just added. Ideally have the ability to sort based on this so one can quickly see them all without having to scroll down the list to see the highlights.
