Hi
i would like to see hotlinking when you use the view funktion in total commander .. thats a feature that i have been missing...
for exeample if there is a weblink in the text you should just be able to press it and it opens the default webbrowser...
hope u take this under consideration mr ghisler..

... in the meantime you may wish to use PSP Pad as your F4 Editor:
http://www.pspad.com/ . It provides clickable URLs in text files.

Yeah, coloured clickable URL's in Lister - missing this feature for years.

I'M not sure if that is a good idea. I requires content matching, which could result in a severe performance loss. Listers main advantage over similar viewers is SPEED.

So it should be an option.

I'm currently doing this only in the html viewer, because there it's clear what is a link and what isn't. Detecting a link in plain text isn't that clear, with ~200 regional top level domains and complex paths...

Hmm, recongizing a string that starts with http:// shouldnt be so difficult... otherwise if that is missing, it doesnt have to be bulletproof, if you see a www.*.com, just go for it
EDIT: see this board software, you can even do better

IMHO an URL should always be written including its protocol (for example http://) - otherwise it is not an URL!

AFAIK lister only load a few of the file into memory. I don't know exactly the amount. Maybe if the size is small the performance is not affected. ¿?

Maybe a different way for identify the links...¿?, could be used a regular expression for search and replace in the "text" loaded into memory? I don't know exactly how delphi do it, but many programs languages have these similar options.
I use this function in PHP for convert text to URLs:
Code: Select all
$text = "Visit TC page http://www.ghisler.com" ;
$text = preg_replace("/http:\/\/[^\s]+/i","<a href=\"\\0\">\\0</a>",$text) ;
echo $text ;
Maybe could be adapt a similar function for delphi.
Sorry if I have committed some barbarity against the programation
