Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Allow commenting of files in directory listing
« on: August 22, 2011, 11:29 AM »
Greetings,
I was wondering if it would be possible to throw something together that would allow the addition of a comment section on directory listings. I keep all my downloaded files, sorted by month and year, and over time, many have similar names of files and many have cryptic names as well. I would like to be able to add a short text statement next to the file (or somewhere on the same line) that would make the file name more meaningful to me.
Right now, the standard fields are "Name", "Date modified", "Type" and "Size". It would be great to be able to add an inputable "Note" or "Comment" field that would accept text input and retain this information during backups etc. I believe XP either allowed me to do this or I had a toy that allowed this to happen. I am using Win 7 x64 Ultimate. Would be sweet if it were possible. ))
Thanx in advance.
