No, you press CTRL+SHIFT+F5, delete the path (not the filename) and you get what you want...

The command "Create a shortcut to a file in the source panel" is missing
Yo can make that command in your usercmd.ini file yourself:

Code: Select all

[em_CreateShortcutSamePanel]
cmd=cm_CreateShortcut
param=/T="%P%O.lnk"

I don't understand the unwillingness to add file system links or wipe. The program claims to offer "total" control and yet witholds some options. Undeletion doesn't really work anymore on an SSD because the space gets freed up instantly by the trim feature. It is also possible to overwrite one file with another through the copy function. An old-fashioned program like this is mainly used by experienced users.

I am mainly interested in links and don't need wipe.

Sir_SiLvA, I didn't realize that this could be done. Thanks for the advice! :)

petermad, thanks for the tip. But I created an empty usercmd.ini file in the Commander's program directory, entered the letter for the letter of your text, restarted the Commander, but the "Create Shortcut" icon (using the "CreateShortcut" command for me) still suggests creating a shortcut with the path corresponding to the panel on the other side of the program.
What did I do wrong?

No, I use the CTRL + SHIFT + F5 combination. I just didn't think to remove the path and leave only the file name in order to get a shortcut in the source folder))
Thank you again! Simple and tasteful, as they say))

By "Create Shortcut" icon - do you mean a button in the buttonbar? If that is the case you have to edit the button's command from cm_CreateShortcut to em_CreateShortcutSamePanel
