Thanks for your great job, ever!

But I'm still looking for a solution for don't word wrap TXT or DOCX files.
Maybe a context menu inside the pane to toggle ON/OFF.

ad 3 - No need to dig through the internals explained here, if you have the editor:

But I have no preview handler for PDF files.
So, I did the steps to register one.

Now, my preview pane is a black pane ...

Regarding PDF, I have two previewers, the "Adobe PDF preview handler" and the "Microsoft PDF Previewer", but the Preview Handler Association Editor discovered that none of them were associated with "*.pdf" . So I made use of the editor to create an association between the MS PDF Previewer and ...

A simple display is this cmd.
Run it, and it will add a list at the end of itself

Good tip!

One more question.

I'm trying to assign another custom command, now to open image files using other image browser than the system default one.
I used custom_open_command01 in addition to custom_open_command , that already existed.

Thank you for paying attention to that.

Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> preview_tab_stop is false.
I don't press TAB or F6.
I updated from 1.5.0.1372 to 1.5.0.1375a. Same behavior.

I mean, TXT is always wrapping the text.
Focus on DOCX results always goes to the preview pane, when trying to ...

Without "", just like dir /b ?

But...
More problems...

My batch file is this:

chcp 1252

goto %~x1

:.AVI
:.FLV
:.MKV
:.MP4
:.MPG

Gabarito

One more thing:
How to send just the filename and not the full path to the LOG file?

Using DIR command, is with "/b" parameter.

Code: Select all

dir %1 /b >> "D:\Programas\GomPlayer - Histórico.txt"

But your suggestion is sending the full path.

Gabarito

And I also appreciate the improvement for my batch script.

Hi.

I'm trying to make a list of all videos I play. To do that, I have a batch file that get the filename and add it to a TXT file. After that, it call the system default player to run that video.

I noted an undesired effect using preview window:

Expected behavior is to keep the focus on files, to navigate among them with keyboard arrows.
But focus always goes to the window ...

Is there an option to do not word wrap TXT preview?

Try disabling word wrap in Notepad.

Unfortunately, it did not work.

Everything 1.5.0.1372a adds a advanced preview_default_handler setting to set the fallback preview handler for files.

Empty is disable.
What else could I add here ...

Good tool, like many others from NirSoft.
I'll try to use it and will report back.

Please try removing the IconPath value.
This value is not needed.

Please try ShExView to manage your shell context menu extensions.

Gabarito

I can see a default icon key below every key I tried to insert an icon.
Is there a chance that this is canceling, overwriting or preventing my custom icon?

I was eager for an answer.
Thanks for the tip.
I will do this.

But I already anticipate a small problem. I have more than 10 virtual volumes, which means I will never have all of them in the same EFU file.

Even so, it is already a great help to be able to use numbers from 0 to 9 to get around the ...

I'm working with too many virtual drives.
Each of them is assigned to a drive letter.

Thank you very much for that version, that I was not aware about!
It is wonderful!
I'm in love with it.

Too many improvements!

For my turn, it's completely approved and could goes to stable version.

Btw. I use the portable installation which makes such steps much easyier
as all files are under one tree.

Excellent tip!
I'll uninstall all versions and start to use portable versions.
Forget "no_instance..." issue.

Thx!

Gabarito

Yes, I didn't read. I'd want to test the solution and I did all things quickly, without attention.

But my goal is to use default name for files, without 1.5a extensions.
And I see there are many folders involved:

C:\Program Files\Everything
C:\Users\i7\AppData\Local\Everything

Gabarito

To install Everything 1.5a, I did not unistall the previous one, 1.4.
I thought the installer would do that.

Wrong.

I ended up with two versions at the same time. And worst, I chose the same folder to install the new one.
I have Everything.exe and Everything64.exe.
The new one 1.5a has default ini ...

Gabarito

Yes, I confirm that too: Everything 1.5a is the full solution.
I can open Opus with CTRL-E and zip/rar files inside Everything just double-clicking them.

Full SOLVED.

Thank you all.

Gabarito

Thank you very much for your correct observation, Fury.

That's right: removing that Registry key leads to loose the ability to open Directory Opus using keyboard shortcut, by instance, CTRL-E.

This solution is a half one. It solves one side and breaks the other.

Do you have a full solution?

Gabarito

Of course!
What a dumb question I did!

Sorry and thank you.
