Hello, i have a problem with the archive extractor and certain archives containing very small "url" files that i would want to simply ignore.

I know that you can filter out html or txt files in the special settings field. But many sites do not use extensions for their url ads within the archives (i guess for that reason).

so instead of: "visitxyz.html" the file would just be "visitxyz" or "visit.xyz"

How can i filter all of those? Is it possible to just ignore all files smaller than maybe 1mb when extracting archives?

You can create a compound or individual regular expression pattern to match and exclude any files in the archive:

Individual pattern:

.+visitxyz$
.+visit\.xyz$
.+visitxyz\.html$

Compound pattern:

.+visit\.?xyz(\.html)?$

You can use a script in eventscripter to delete the files based on size, after they are extracted.
