You seem to be talking about partial matches, and by "mantissa" you mean that number in the filename? (Never heard that word in that context.)

Well, probably a bit too exotic.

Yeah, it's "Matches partial text from left to right by number of characters" and "Matches partial text from right to left by number of characters"

When we delete one of the copies from disk can XYplorer delete the other copy from the list automatically?
If not, can you add an option for this?

Thanks for reading and sorry for bad English.

What a funny admin/developer, I really like it. :)

Well, can XYplorer warn user before deleting the only one left copy?

Sometimes I mistakenly delete the file from the neighbor group.

Maybe glasses will be a better choice. :)

Sory for my bad English.

I suggest glasses + delete confirmation prompt.
