Renaming torrent containing a single file loses extension #758

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
1. Add a torrent file with name "TEST" containing a single file (such as 
test.mp4)
2. Rename torrent as TEST2

Result: file name is changed to TEST2, without extension

I think the correct behavior whould be to change file name to TEST2.mp4

I'm using Transmission Remote GUI 5.0.1 on Windows 7 SP1 (x64) and 
transmission-daemon 2.82 on Debian 13.10 desktop (x64).

true, i've noticed that. The rename function selects the whole file.

in essence, like on windows , only the name part should be selected on pressing 
F2 (rename) 

that way no extension gets borked.

Another possible approach would be to separate the "display name" of the 
torrent and the directory/file name.

For example in uTorrent you can change the name of the torrent without renaming 
the file and you can rename the downloaded file name without changing the 
displayed name.
