I was not thinking of using Nepomuk. I was thinking of sorting based on file types and directing the downloads to different pre-set subfolders in Downloads(like Downloads\Music or Downloads\Documents). The downloading application identifies the file types and the application that open the file but does not categorize the same. I think this involves significant amount of work in terms of adding a UI to set the target folders for different file types and creating download filters.
@Andrew: I would like to get your feedback on this and it would be great if you could let me know on how should I proceed with this. Also your thoughts on this from GSoC perspective Thanks On Mon, Feb 13, 2012 at 5:08 PM, Andrew Mason <andrew.ma...@voice.net.au>wrote: > > By the way, if you want to sort downloads by file types, using Nepomuk > > is the obvious solution. > > I like this idea but please consider there are some people, for which > Nepomuk > is disabled.
