Version 4.1B12 Tip..

Postby dexter » Sun May 04, 2003 6:29 pm

The later beta versions have a "Download to Folder" feature where you can specify the folder where you want a file to be saved. This feature remembers the last folder selected on 2K and XP but does not under 98/ME because of operating system differences. By default, all files go into the "DOWNLOAD" folder where NewsBin is installed and are placed in a folder named after the newsgroup where the post was found. To use this feature, right-click on a post in the "Post List" and select "Download to Folder...". Then navigate to the folder you want in the resulting "Save As" window. There is a slight quirk in that you have to specify a bogus filename, say "save", for NewsBin to recognize this folder. This is because NewsBin doesn't know the real filename until it starts downloading the file. Once the file download is complete, NewsBin will use the actual filename. You can select a block of posts and use this feature to download a bunch of files to the same location. By default, all files go into the "DOWNLOAD" folder where NewsBin is installed and are placed in a folder named after the newsgroup where the post was found. If you haven't already tried version B12, you can read about the changes and download it here. Please try our forums if you have a problem or want advice. Many topic have already been discussed so a search of the forum will usually give you whatever answer you seek. As always, you are welcome to send email to tech_support@newsbin.com for any technical issues.
