A trick for a Download Folder rule
Authored by: AGDenton on Nov 21, '06 09:24:12AM

If you use Hazel for your Downloads folder, you can use it to sycnhronize the "Date Modified" file metadata (which indicates when the host last modified his file) with the "Date Added" timestamp Hazel keeps. This will enable you to sort your downloads by date in the Finder, for instance.
The rule :

If "Date Modified" is before "Date Added"
run shell script "touch"

(you'll have to navigate to /usr/bin to select touch).
