   I want to use the Exclude pictures that contain the following expression, but I want to use it for multiple expressions.

   A) is this possible?
   B) how do I format the expressions

   screencap example included. (I thought perhaps ; would be the separator)

   Ok, this is something I plan on improving in future versions but in the meantime it uses a regular expression which is a very powerful (i.e. difficult for those not in the know to use) way of string matching.

   So in your case you could do this:

   (nsfw)|(highres)|(cars)

   That will exclude any picture that contains 'nsfw', 'highres' or 'cars' in the full path.

   If you really want to master regular expressions or see some more examples, here's a good place to look (although it's not for the feint hearted):

   Hope that helps!

   Thank you very much, I understand now. Being a Script writer, this is now like English to me.

   Being I know the full power of this method I would suggest keeping this form of power in the program, but also having a simple terminator (;) separator.

   Thanks very much and keep up the great work.

   Ah good, wasn't sure if you were regex savvy or not! I'll definitely keep the regex option in addition to whatever else I add as it's much more powerful!

   And will do!
