Notes |
Purpose of the Mod
To make the Mod List filename column more useful, this mod
- (Most significantly) Turns the mod filename into a hyperlink that displays the .cfg file in a new tab or window
- Allows the user to infer the full filename when the filename is truncated:
- The file extension is always omitted because it is always '.cfg'
- The filename version number is omitted if it matches the version number inside the file,
- But the modname and version number portions of the filename are highlighted if they do not match the values that are defined inside the .cfg file.
- Displays full filename when users mouse over the filename, and allows it to overflow outside the fixed-length table cell if necessary.
