Thus, the date and time information would be kept in the file metadata, not in the name, specially considering that names with ":" might be problematic in some file systems. I of course don't know, from a developer point of view, what is the best option, but I thought about giving my "personal" two cents on the matter. :) --=20 - [[https://libreplanet.org/wiki/User:Adfeno]] - Palestrante e consultor sobre /software/ livre (n=C3=A3o confundir com gratis). - "WhatsApp"?
