"foldered" adjective
I'm looking for an adjective that conveys that something is stored in a folder. "Foldered". Only no dictionary I browsed treats folder as a verb. And fold, enfold, infold do not seem to carry that specific in-a-folder meaning. Google returns 23800 results for "foldered", though... Should I go with the masses?
I found a Wikipedia explanation of foldering that is more specific than what you have in mind (A communicates with B electronically, without a paper trail, by working in a shared gmail account, writing a draft email, which can be erased after it's been read).
It sounds as though that's not what you're looking for, but rather
to file
to arrange (papers, records, etc.) in convenient order for storage or reference (dictionary.com)
The adjective would be filed, e.g. See if the Houseman estate is filed under H, will you?
Foldered appears to be a word that is in use, mostly in a computing context and with an implication of ‘finished’.
“Folder members (also called foldered objects) -- objects that must be stored in a folder.”
“iAssembly Author Include/Exclude Foldered Items”
“Note if using an SDK to generate the URL, v1 is automatically added to the URL by default for foldered images”
“Foldered Tasks”
“Foldered & Finished: Ora Mae Curry Papers”
