Small development request for Library

Agama · 09-17-2011, 08:38 AM

Would it be possible to have a description field associated with each calibre library, which could be displayed in the title bar after the library name? For example in the attached screen shot, the library path is:

C:\Folders\Books\Calibre\Wip

and the description is: Work In Progress - Proof Reading

so the title bar shows: || Wip || Work In Progress - Proof Reading ||

Would anyone else find this useful or feel inclined to do this development?

Why dont you just name the folder to be whatever name you want?

Because I wanted:

Work In Progress - Conversions and Proof Reading

but with the rest of the path this was too long.

(I'm probably a bit of an old-school luddite too, as my naming conventions usually stick to the 8.3 convention of DOS 5.5)
