Use regex without requiring extension

[titandrive]

Prerequisites

• I confirm this request is not part of an existing issue.

Describe the feature

Currently an extension is required to do anything which limits its usability. I would like to filters using only the regex.

An example: I'd like to move any folders matching my query. Currently I can't do anything with folders as they dont have a file extension.

Describe alternatives you've considered (if applicable)

Give this CI build a try and let me know if you have any issues.

Thanks for the update! It mostly works. Two things:

1. Currently I dont believe it works on folders and only moves files. I'd like it to also be able to move entire folders / directories that match eg "*.koplugin"
2. Whats the difference between all files and no extension?

[bikram-agarwal]

I won't be implementing # 1. That has potential to wreck entire storage. BTW, rules can reproduce exact subdirectory structure at destination. "Mirror subfolders to destination" toggle.

"No extension" means files with no extension. Like LICENSE, .gitignore etc.
"All files" means literally all files in the source foldeRs.

[titandrive]

I understand the hesitation. Is there any chance youd consider a power user mode toggle in settings or something? Im basically hoping this user can replace other apps that can already do this, since its so much more easier to use.

[bikram-agarwal]

No, that's a hard no. When people wreck their storage, they'll never agree that "I explicitly enabled the power user mode and ignored all the warnings." They'll be like "Your app bricked my phone."

Totally understand, thanks! Works great as is.
