Why "zipfromlist" command not listed in Totalcmd.i

[ts4242]

Why "zipfromlist" command not listed in Totalcmd.inc file under "Commands with parameter" category?

[petermad]

What is the number of that command ?

Hello Peter !

• That number is not specified in the “Change buttons” dialogue, the only place where it's mentioned in the Help…

• Checking the list of commands with parameters, it seems that -1 is not assigned, so it could be that?
- Only the Author knows…

• Aside, I confess that for > a decade, I never used it !

I agree, that should be included in the "commands with parameters" section.

I will consider it for TC 7.5 (it requires translation).

Still "zipfromlist" command not listed in Totalcmd.inc file under "Commands with parameter" category?
It has a code is not documented?

It's currently only documented in the help:

5. With the command zipfromlist, you can create a zip file from a list of files. The command field must contain the zip file name, and the parameters field the name of the list file. The list file must contain a list of files to be packed, one file per line.

You should also add that zipfromlist do not accept quote for the target zip file name. i.e.

Code: Select all

cmd=zipfromlist "C:\I want to Set spaces\zip from list.zip"

This is not working the message state that file cannot be found !

Code: Select all

cmd=zipfromlist C:\I want to Set spaces\zip from list.zip

Create the zipfile at the correct place but it is not a very standard way to pass a parameter.
It should be probably enhanced or removed....

I agree
