Using v6.40B5 - 1971

Main Download folder is set to: C:\M\$(NZBFILE)\$(SUBJECT)\
NZB Download folder is set to: C:\M\$(NZBFILE)\$(SUBJECT)\
Unrar Folder option Not checked

1. When trying to d/l a record w this subject Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc 07 of 60
2. I'll create and double-click Joe Composer - The Symphony Edition.nzb, which gets downloaded to this
3. C:\M\Joe Composer - The Symphony Edition\Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc of NN - _NN -

What do I do for the disc number of the original record?
Do you need another variable (doubt)?
Are regex expressions allowed in the D/L path?

I'm not really clear what you're asking for. Some way to apply an RE to a subject line?

In order for newsbin to do this, it needs to be 'smart' enough to be able to parse the subject for NN of NN and extract that information. It's not data that is inherent in the post or as a form of metadata, it's just some text in the subject. Strikes me as nontrivial. Of course, it *is* easy to make a rule that pulls (number) of (number) from the subject, but to add this parsing to every single post every time you load? I wonder what sort of hit that would have?

If one looks at several posts, with the following subjects:
Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc 01 of 60
Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc 02 of 60
...
Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc 60 of 60

and I use the $(SUBJECT) variable in the Download folder, then

I would like the folder stucture to reflect the $(SUBJECT) variable
like so:
C:\M\Joe Composer - The Symphony Edition\Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc 01 of 60
C:\M\Joe Composer - The Symphony Edition\Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc 02 of 60
...
C:\M\Joe Composer - The Symphony Edition\Joe Composer - Symphony Edition - Disc 60 of 60

Can it be done?
And thanks in advance
