Is there any way to change the wording used when selecting 'Rename Old' when copying a file using drag&drop over the top of an existing version in another directory?
Currently it tags the existing file with "filename (Original).txt". I'd prefer to see something like the original file being renamed to "filename_backup_20090917_140137.txt", where "_20090917_140137" is generated automatically from the current datetime.
Anyone know if that's possible, particularly with drag&drop? If not with drag&drop, how else would you achieve this?
This is an interesting problem and something like AB's suggestion is about as close to a solution as I can come up with too (short of using an external script that is).
But that's not quite what planetthoughtful seems to be asking for, and I think it would be a useful enhancement to Opus if custom renaming could be performed whenever a name clash occurs during a copy operation.
If "Copy WhenExists RenameNewAs" (and/or RenameOldAs) were also available, we would have much greater flexibility when encountering name clashes during copy operations.
