Regex matching rules?

Been using Beyond Compare; just discovered FFS, and loving the moved file detection.

But BC has a feature called "alignment override" ... which allows me to specify a regex rule for matching items with different names. Folders on the destination have prefixes which I want to ignore.

For example, I can specify that a source folder called `202010_FooBar1` should be synced to destination folder `FooBar1` by specifying that `\d\d\d\d\d\d_(.*)` aligns with `$1`

Does FFS have anything like this?

Thanks!

It does not, you would have to set up a folder pair for each of the instances that occurs
