OneWay 0.5.2 Released – Thank you, Hacker News

After what I feel was a very successful launch of the OneWay app last week, I just want to thank everyone on Hacker News for all the comments, downloads and support. Also, thanks to everyone who emailed me bug reports and feature requests, I do read these and it is because of you that I will keep this project going.

That being said, the most popular feature request I received was the ability to, after uploading a file, copy its URL to the clipboard. I absolutely agree this would be a great feature, so over the weekend I decided to give it a whirl and I’m releasing it to you today in version 0.5.2.

How it works

In order to use this feature you’ll have to enable it for each of your bookmarks. Create a new bookmark, or edit an existing one by double-clicking it in your list. Click on the “More” arrow below the bookmarks directory and check the box labeled “Enable URL copying for files uploaded to this directory”.

Now enter the URL for the bookmark in the text box and you’re done. Now whenever you upload files to that bookmark you can quickly grab the URL by right-clicking on the upload and selecting the Copy URL to Clipboard.

How to get the Update

If you have already installed OneWay, simply launch the application and under the OneWay Menu choose “Check for Updates” and you should be prompted to install it. If you have not yet installed OneWay you can download the 0.5.2 release on the project page.
