About file extension
:warning: If you do not specify a new extension, the previous will be saved.
But you can use two special characters:
• !!ext – don't preserve original extension. • &&ext – preserve original extension (available with duplicate.keepOriginalExtension option).
For example:
• nameOfFile!!ext – create filepath without original extension • nameOfFile&&ext – create filepath with original extension

Listing placement
Filled points are observed values; hollow points come from Internet Archive snapshots of the listing page. Dashed segments span periods with no observations — values between points are not interpolated.
Each band is one page of 20. Installs on a linear scale. Placement is projected from installs, so it can differ from the marketplace's own sort order. Hover a dot to see the listing.
