#83 Convert folder structure into tags structure

[Anonymous]

Next version may include feature of mass loading files via subfolders. It will be great to add feature of using current folder structure as tags. For example, my structure is attached. Each files should be tagged by all parent folders beginning with root of scan. In my example book in folder Audit, should receive automatically Management, Consulting, Audit (tags).

It has 2 main arguments (at least for me):
1) Without program like yours, everybody tried to reproduce tags mechanism with folders structure. These structures are good and enough complicated. With your program we automatically receive all pluses of tags and folder.
2) Automatic retrieve tags from Google is great, but it produces chaos 8) Because more than 20-30 makes tags usefulness for me.

Books catalogs structure

I found another similar request "2951597 Navigation pane should include folder browser". It good too 8)

That's a good idea.
One trick though is how to differentiate between folders for cataloging, and folders of a single book (usually when one books has several files)

I`ll think about how to address this.

The easiest way to differ folders with tags, from folders with name: parse folder name beginning with @ or _ as tags, for example 8)

You think having the tags with folders will be more convenient?
I thought about adding another tree in the left panel, with all the "monitored directories" and there sub-folders.
(see my sample below)

I think Folders view is good solution! especially if it already implemented 8)

p.s. with impatience wait for new version! Thanks for your work.

Folder browsing is implemented.
Making tags of folder's tree is still pending.
