Feature: Add [url] to "Save in" Template (like [title], [date], [time]) #66

[url] would have to filter/substitute characters like slashes (colons). In my particular case, I'm only after a long number at the end of the URL, but I can imagine someone wanting to preserve the original URL as much as possible. Substituting "_" for "/" is a common practice (not sure what a good substitute for ":" would be) ...

I'll take a look if I might be able to code it in myself, but I don't think it would be that difficult. Maybe the [url] keyword already exists? Thanks!

new keywords [href], href-hostname], [href-pathname], [href-search], and [href-hash]

btw, if you use the "Save Dir" option, it will create a meta file in the directory for you with the full URL included.

Thanks for the quick add and the info! [href-pathname] is working fine for me. For the moment....

.... I've been playing around with this particular extension that Auto Bookmarks all URL domain pages as one visits them: https://github.com/txusko/AutoBookmarks

Unfortunately it's 6 years old and a lot of the code is broken (fails to fetch the Web Page Title properly, doesn't allow one to navigate/save the bookmark in an existing deep subfolder path and saves all bookmarks from all of the URL Domain and not a specific subdirectory path of the domain only). The Good News is that it successfully Auto Bookmarks, so that part of the code is solid! I have not tried to contact the author yet, for any guidance/advice....

FYI: Another useful Chrome Extension besides this one, is "Save Text to File", where I have opened this Issue, but there is a work-around for the moment: https://github.com/bobbyrne01/save-text-to-file-chrome/issues/8

The work-around involves [disabling/never enabling] the Host Application; seems the latest python version(s) are breaking the proper saving of particular UniCode characters, like there is a default setting directive, needed. I'm mentioning this extension because it compliments your work saving images, as this extension saves UniCode Text by marking, then right clicking in the context menu.
