That is a good idea. Frequently I have to manually count files in a
certain folder. At least the sluggish behavior seems to be gone if you put
more than 20 files in a folder.

You can always get the remaining space on the card by pressing 8 for one beep. However, having the number of files in a folder announced when the folder name is announced is a kinda neat idea. Something like, "Audible folder - 6 files" or whatever.

Feature Request - Number of Files in folderHow about expanding that to also have it give you the size of the folder and amount of remaining space on the card. ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Torpey To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, February 10, 2006 7:42 PM Subject: [bookport] Feature Request - Number of Files in folder
I've finally gotten into podcasting and listening to podcasts on the Bookport - Really neat (and easy!)
Anyway, now that I find myself automatically downloading more and more files/podcasts into their respective folders on the Bookport, I often want to know how many files/programs are being stored in each folder. Since I don't always get around to listening to a group of podcasts, many programs may collect in a folder before I have a chance to listen to them and delete them.
Thus, a feature I would find useful is a keystroke to announce how many files are in a particular folder. I'm thinking that a single press of the 8 key might be made to announce the number of files contained in a folder when the Bookport is pointed to a folder name. Currently, hitting 8 when on a folder name in the Bookport does nothing, so there is an open place for doing something like this or something similar.
