Following from list

Post by hubbahubba »

Every time an accounts follows others from a list of urls, it creates a file on my desktop of the accounts just followed. It was fine at first but now my desktop is full of text docs for every action created. Logs 88896

yes it will. The program will never modify your original file, instead it creates file that is used "inprocess" to log the progress of that file processing. But it should only be one additional file per file you tell the program to use.

Or is the issue the program doesn't delete the inprocess file once complete?

I suppose I could use a twitterdub folder to store the inprocess files, at the moment, they are placed in the same directory as the file processing, so if you don't want too many text files on your desktop don't place the original file on the desktop :-p


But let me look into it,I can add a config to give the option so the program uses the %appdata%\rootjazz\twitterdub folder...
