I want to do this:
1. search some files
2. feed them to the listbox
3. now select one and go to the folder containing that file
Many times the files I search are generated, and I don't want to view/open them. I want to edit files near it.
My suggestion is to add an entry in the context menu to select the file in in the folder it resides in.
add "go to folder" item to files in searh listbox

Maybe you can use Ctrl+Left/Right to jump to file in target panel? Also you can use Ctrl+Up to open folder of focused file in new tab (you may setup if new tab should be set active under 'Configuration - Folder Tabs'), or Ctrl+Shift+Up to open it in new target panel's tab. Also some of theese keys have internal command equivalents (e.g. cm_OpenDirInNewTab, search more using cm_CommandBrowser).
If you want to go to the selected file in the same panel from either a "feed to listbox view" or from a "branch view" you can use this button in the button bar (or make an external command with the same content):
Code: Select all
TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cd
%N
%COMMANDER_PATH%\WCMICONS.DLL,19
Go to file under cursor (from listbox or branch view)
