Properly manage filenames

[silverhook]

I'm using ownNotes to write .markdown (which is the proper extension for it, not .md) files on ownCloud, which are then further processed into a blog using Pelican.

Therefore I need the filename extensions to be intact.

Currently ownNotes adds .txt to whatever the user enters in the first line of the note.

This in turn changes e.g. ownnotes-test.markdown into ownnotes-test.markdown.txt, which messes things up for me.

What's more, ownNotes sometimes shows the extension and sometimes not — this adds further confusion.

In order of my preference, here are some solutions:

• actually show and use the full filename (preferably in a separate field or with a line drawn between or something visual);
• add to options which file extension to use (e.g. .txt, .markdown, .note, custom);
• just change the hardcoded settings to append .markdown instead of .txt.

P.S. Thanks for the wonderful app(s), BTW 😸

Another annoyance I found is that if you try to change the base of the filename in ownNotes, it rename the extension (back) to .txt.

I ll add option for next version.

No sorry, all my sailfish applications development are suspended currently.

Oh, well. I’ll wait.

Unless it’s a very easy fix and I can try it myself.
