feature request: selectable download path for dcc

Open stolendata opened this issue 12 years ago • 10 comments

As title says, would be great to get a configuration slot to enter the path where incoming files via DCC will end up, instead of them being forced to ~/Downloads/.

I agree, I moved to a dual-drive config, with an SSD for OS/APPs and an external regular HDD for everything else.

It would be great to be able to re-direct Limechat's DCC downloads to another folder without having to symlink the entire "Downloads" folder which is less than ideal when the external drive isn't connected.

I agree that's a desirable feature

In 2017, this is still a must have feature :)

I'd say the above for the 2018 and 2019 too..

Yes sir, 2019 (and almost 2020) this is still a must have feature 😸

2023 and I still can not switch the download folder. Great.

I would love to choose the folder...

Thirteen years later I think we can assume this isn't happening! Too bad.
