[solved] TC 9.5b5 - Items for files in Directory hotlist menu are not marked as items for dirs are

[petermad]

To reproduce:
Make an entry in the Directory hotlist with the command:

Code: Select all

cd c:\windows\

Press Ctrl+D and click the item.
You are taken to c:\windows - as expected.
Press Ctrl+D again - the item is marked in the menu - as expected.

Now change the entry to:

Code: Select all

cd c:\windows\bootstat.dat

Press Ctrl+D and click the item.
You are taken to c:\windows and the cursor is placed on bootstat.dat - as expected.
Press Ctrl+D again - the item is NOT marked in the menu - unexpected.

This is normal - TC cannot know whether bootstat.dat is a file or a directory when checking the hotlist menu for matching entries.

OK - I guess it not worth the wile to build in a check for that - it could also slow down the display of long menus to check the for it.
