How it works:

At the main window you have the default action that executed when files are dropped into the program.

The syntax:

%n - Replaced with the original file name
%d - Replaced with the serial number if more then one file is dropped
[dd] - The current day, likewise: [mm], [yyyy], [hh], [ii], [ss] for month, year, hours, minutes, seconds respectively
filter: - This action will apply filters on the file name (case sensitive action)

Examples:

%n_[yyyy]-[mm]-[dd] - If we drag a file with the name "example file.txt" the result will be: "example file_2010-12-31.txt"
picture_%d - If we drag ten files at once the result will be: "picture_1.jpg", "picture_2.jpg",...,"picture_10.jpg".

The index can be defined by: "File last modified date", "File created date", "File name".

filter:

The filter has two delimiters:
| - To seperate each filter
: - To seperate the old string and the new string in the each filter

Example:

Lets look at the file "my.movie_xvid.avi"
If I apply: "filter: .: |_xvid:" the result will be "my movie.avi"
The dot replaced with space and the "_xvid" was removed because after the delimiters ":" we put the delimiters "|"
In that way you can clean file names from unwanted characters.

Extensions:

When the extensions option is checked the default action is overrided by the extensions table.
All the above rules applies in that table and preformed on the target file type.
