# 5.6. Directories

In this section you can setup default directories for different file extensions. Each line in the list contains a pair : file extension and directory.

Buttons allow you to add, delete and change entries in the list.

You can use wildcards in the the extension field to specify various file types.

When the new transfer is added, the file extension is compared to the entries in this list. Caitoo keeps the order, so put more global entries ( like * ) to the end of the list.

When Caitoo doesn't find the matching extension, it will use the current directory.

Toolbar button Use last directory can be used to temporarily disable the directory settings. When it is set, Caitoo will put the file into the directory used for the last transfer added.
