File type detection
with file placement to specified categories
When a download is added to the list DM automatically detects file type.
The field name used for detection will blink during 5 seconds.
File type detection
is based on a file extension (and is done for those extensions which are
specified for categories) as well as on regular expressions for a URL
(more detail about using regular expressions you can find here).
By clicking
on the  button,
you can:
- Open the "Properties..."
window for a selected category;
- Add a new subcategory;
- Set option "Remember
last folder for categories".
(
i ) To use this feature you have to enable
"Download category detection" in the program options.
Using regular expressions:
Regular expressions have to be enclosed in single quotes and be separated
with spaces. You can specify both extensions and regular expressions simultaneously
(regular expressions have higher priority in the order they are specified,
i.e. the first regular expression has the highest priority and the last
extension has the lowest priority).
Examples:
'tory.net'
- files with URLs containing phrase tory.net will be placed into the category.
'(?i)metal{1,2}ica'
- files with URLs containing phrase metallica or metalica (regardless
of case) will be placed into the category.
'(?i)metal{1,2}ica' '(?i)beatles' MP3 OGG
- files satisfying regular expressions '(?i)metal{1,2}ica' and '(?i)beatles'
will be placed into the category as well as files with MP3 and OGG extensions.
Organizing your
download list
Possibility of creating unlimited number of categories and hierarchy levels
lets you organize the download list according to your taste.
You can freely move
downloads from one category to another, move folders from one section
to another, and swap folders. If you click with the right mouse button
on a category name, the context menu will appear. With the context menu
you can do the following:
- Add - create
a new subcategory in the current category;
- Properties...
[Alt+Enter] - edit properties of
the current category;
- Delete [Del]

[Enter] - open folder to which downloads
of this category are saved;

(
i ) In the "Others" - "Misc"
section of the program options window you can enable the "Show subcategory
downloads in a category " option. After that both downloads of the
category and downloads of all its subcategories will be displayed in the
list.
Saving files to cloud services
In the clouds directory you can see the list of cloud services installed on the computer (Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, Yandex.Disk, Box, Mega and others).
You can choose one of the available options and and after downloading the file will be saved to the corresponding cloud service.
Automatic synchronization
of files on servers and your computer (autoupdate)
This category can be used for synchronization of files on servers and
your computer, as well as for scheduling downloads to start at specified
time.
