Links, not paths when you expand complete downloads

Post by bugmenot »

If you are connected to the server via a loopback device (or just check if it's 127.0.0.1 since that will cover 99.999999999 and so on of cases) then instead of listing paths to unpacked files, make them clickable file:// hyperlinks.

could be nice if we can choose to use file:// links to directly open folder containing the file.
good improvement is to allow it for shared folder on network by defining the base path to it (e: //fileserver/share)

I signed up to the forum to request just this feature myself.  Would love it if I could click to open the folder.  Even if it wasn't clickable if you could click to put the path in the clipboard that would be great.  But the other option of being able to enable a share and linking to the share would be great too.  I think there is probably alot that could be done with this.  Even possibly expanding the completed download and linking directly to each individual file.

I am not the op, I just didn't want to sign up to the forums just to make one post ;)

I also would LOVE this feature. It's the only thing I miss from alt.binz.

I'll have another look at the issue.
We do dislike adding features that will generate a disproportionate amount of questions/complaints.
