====== How to customize abbreviations ======

DropIt provides advanced features to modify abbreviated strings. It is possible to add an unlimited
number of modifiers in each abbreviation, using the following syntax:\\
''%Abbreviation#Modifier1%#Modifier2%''

Some destination examples for Rename action using modifiers:\\
(Destination => Original Filename => Result Filename)\\
''<nowiki>%FileName#>3,4%.%FileExt%</nowiki>'' => Readme.txt => adme.txt\\
''<nowiki>%FileName#s>(me)%.%FileExt%</nowiki>'' => Readme Example.doc => me Example.doc\\
''<nowiki>%FileName#---#+%.%FileExt#---%</nowiki>'' => TEST NAME.JPG => Test name.jpg\\
''<nowiki>%FileName#r(me,PH)%.%FileExt%</nowiki>'' => Memory me.zip => PHmory PH.zip
