Description Paul 2007-05-26 17:58:09 UTC 
Version:           v0.8.5 (using KDE 3.5.5, Debian Package 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-8 (4.0))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18-4-686

In the directory dialog i have the choice to sort files into directories by their extension.

My wish first was to sort in the file not only by the extension, but by regular expressions or at least wildcards so, that the whole filename can be considered.

I just tried and found out that this is partly possible, i can sort a file by an expression like

MyFavouritePodcast-episode*

which is great when not all episodes have the same extension.

Unfortunately this grooooooovy feature is undocumented in the dialog.
(and it would be even groovier if i could use full regexes)

Regexp are now possible (KGet in trunk (KDE 4)).
