Re: Custom "Go to folder" method possible?

You could also do this using AutoIT (a general purpose scripting language for windows) and this 5 line AutoIT script: $answer = InputBox("CD To Project Number Input Box", "Project Number") $path = "C:\work\" & StringMid($answer,1,2) & "xxx" & "...

Re: How to keep different inis synchronized?

Hi Dirk, Sorry I'm not quite sure what you are asking but I'll rephrase my last post and see if it helps. Lets say you want to sync ini1 and ini2. For example, you currently run FC using ini1, then you make some changes and you want to know how to propagate those changes to ini2. The first way sugge...

Re: How to keep different inis synchronized?

I had this problem and looked into this also. In the end I found it easier to copy to newest ini (ini1 say) over the top of the "other" ini (ini2 say) file and then recreate the differences between my ini file configs. This was easier to automate as the differences between my ini file don'...

Re: A reasonable way to switch sets of toolbars on/off

AutoIt has really enabled me to expand the functionality of the FC toolbars. It's not a pretty solution (sometimes you can see the buttons being pressed as the script runs for example). But I'll take it warts and all while we wait for future versions which hopefully will make at least some of these ...

Re: A reasonable way to switch sets of toolbars on/off

ok Textrawler still remains my favorite tool for file search/replace, but for the time being, I found this CLI search and replace tool (rxfind) that supports regex. Its easy now to switch the toolbars and restart FC by pressing one button in the FC toolbar. It works nicely even for switching just 1 ...

A reasonable way to switch sets of toolbars on/off

I use different sets of toolbars on my FC depending on location (different network shares etc), monitor size (on my htpc I turn off all but essentials). I got tired of turning 6 toolbars on and off (using toolbars --> customize, toggle 12 checkboxes). So today I sat down and compared the freecommand...

Re: Any way to use Wildcard in MutiRename "Search & Replace"?

For that particular example, this will work:

[n6]F[n,8]

It picks out the first 6 chars, pokes in the "F" and then picks out the rest from char 8 onwards.

51001-R summary.xls --> 51001-F summary.xls

My fc layout on bigger monitor (1900 x 1200)

I have a few layouts, but on each layout I start with the same tabs on both sides. All the layouts have several tabs on both sides except one minimal layout "C:C:" which just has 1 tab on each side. http://i749.photobucket.com/albums/xx134/w4tch3r/FreeCommander.jpg And here's the legend fo...

I wanted this so badly, I wrote an autoit script that does it, compiled it to and exe, drew an icon and stuck it in a toolbar. I now have my own "copy" button that copies the file. The new name is like this: old name: AAA.xxx new name: AAA --copy--.xxx its not perfect. Doesn't work on fold...

What a great program this is. Marek you are a very skilled programmer. I can hardly wait to see your new creation... Until it comes out, here is a way get a bit more flexibility with the toolbar buttons. 2009.02 lets you create multiple Favorites toolbars. With a little AutoIT scripting, you can mak...
