Pattern: A file name, absolute or not, which is composed of symbols (variable) which can take several values.
-
%d : indicates that any number should be present instead of the variable. This option works like printf like arguments, e.g: %04d, which indicates you want the variable to match only numbers with 4 prepending zeroes.
-
### : Same as %d but the number of "#" character indicates how many digits the number should be.
-
%v: indicates that a short view name should be present instead of the variable. This means either "l" for the left view and "r" for the right view.
-
%V: Same as %v but for long view names, i.e: "right" and "left"
This repository aims to help solving 3 problems:
-
Given a file name, search within the same directory for all other files that matches the same "pattern".
-
Given a "pattern" generate file names for a given frame number and view.
-
Given a files list, tries to group files under similar patterns.
