Web Log Storming: Using File and Path parameters
Bookmark this story
We are makers of Web Log Storming. It was released to public more than a year ago, and unpolished version we use almost for 3 years. Despite of all that, it keeps surprising us with its capabilities. Almost to say: “We made a monster!” 
One of the most powerful features is Path and File parameter.
Simplest use of File wildcard parameter is well known syntax: *.html, or *.html, *.exe. Maybe it’s not too obvious that this means “visited *.html or *.exe”. Other examples are:
+*.html, +*.exe
visited *.html and *.exe”+*.html, *.exe, *.zip
visited *.html and any of *.exe or *.zip+*.html, -*.exe
visited *.html and not *.exe
Path parameter is similar, but can give more interesting results:
*, /a.html, *
visited a.html (same asFile wildcard: /a.html)*, /a.html, /b.html, *
visited a.html and b.html directly after*, /a.html, *, /b.html, *
visited a.html and b.html after (not necessary directly)/a.html, *, /b.html, *
entered at a.html and visited b.html after that*, /a.html, *, /b.html
visited a.html and exited from b.html
Using different combinations you can easily calculate specific conversions.
