Feature Request: File Count Column

[BattouSaeen]

• I have checked the existing issues to avoid duplicates
• I have redacted any info hashes and content metadata from any logs or screenshots attached to this issue

I would like to request the ability to add new columns, particularly File Count. At present, the file count is only displayed when a listing is clicked; it opens up and then shows file count.

A column that shows File Count (similar to columns that show size or seeder counts) will enable one to quickly compare torrents without having to click on them. Particularly useful when searching for collections or packs that are named the same or nearly the same, one can then visually compare them very quickly.

A great implementation is how btdig's interface is setup. Attached is an image of how listings appear there. A lot of info is immediately visible, so one does not have to click. This is a bit of an extended commentary on how even displaying matching filenames to the search terms is even more useful. From what I understand, bitmagnet does match the search term to filenames as well, however, we cannot see them. Btdig on the other hand, highlights some of the files that match. In Btdig's case, the files that match get bumped up within this minilist so they can appear first. I realise this is a bit extra but I mention it so that if it can be implemented, it's made aware of in advance.

Summary of requests:

• column for showing file counts (or just a field under the title like in btdig)
• for future: file list shows matching filenames first. Ideally without having to click and just similar to btdig
