add "go to folder" item to files in searh listbox

Post by *andi »

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.

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).

Thanks. Ctrl+Left is exactly what I needed.

As far as I am concerned, the thread can be closed.

Still, a shortcut would be nice to go to a file from Feed to listbox in the same panel.

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

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)
