I use a lot the command line with some cm_... or em_... command TC can auto complete/suggest folder/file names at any place but cannot help with it's own command.

/// I know it is old fashioned

but it is the most efficient way i've found to use TC and other software (emacs, autocad, ...)

Could it be possible to have such completion also with a specific hotkey or with a prefix like ? or * and only for first position ??

I've also noticed that none of the %N %O %P %F ... %T %L %UL %WL are interpreted is it a bug or a missing feature ??

Sounds nice. I don't use completion yet, maybe this would be a reason to change this.

If they were interpreted, this would break compatibility to command line variables like below, wouldn't it?

Code: Select all

cmd /k for %n in (*.*) do @echo %n

[Edit:] Maybe both would be possible, if only upper case internal variables would be expanded.

Or if TC will treat '%%' as just percent sign like in bat-files.

Code: Select all

cmd /k for %%n in (*.*) do @echo %%n

Indeed, sounds nice.

I like this function so much. Who can use a plugin to realize it ?-----including cm_XX, em_XX and ALIAS

I have done the command completion of TC through TCLive software. Now only Chinese version! But you can use it. No problem!

It would actually be really nice if TC had an option to start a command shell if it doesn't recognize the typed command as an internal action.

Then you could just do things like:

ASSOC | MORE

From TC's command line, without needing to preface the action with CMD.exe /k or making an alias for all of the possible command-line actions.

Just use any noclose replacer and Shift+Enter that will start cmd with given command line.

This would be fairly easy to implement, and it could be made available to any program, not just cmd.exe (other scripting programs, editors, etc).
When the OR symbol "|" is the first character in TC's command prompt it would modify behaviour as MVV suggests, eg:

|cmd /K @ECHO OFF&FOR /F "delims=" %%F IN (%S) DO ECHO %%F

Prior to sending the string off to the cmd.exe interpreter for parsing, TC changes all "%%" to % and expands its own internal single letter %vars.

Is it possible to use aliases for opening pairs of folders in the current version of TTC, each on a different pane, just like XYPlorer ( http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5204 ) and DOpus (http://resource.dopus.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10389&p=76164&hilit=alias&sid=d64ee37fc541524509adfe06a0eecf1a#p76164 ).

IMHO, this is a must-have feature. I would like so much to see it implemented...

Thanks.

MCHAL, you may create constant user-command that will open same pair of folders in both TC panels, just use following command:

Code: Select all

Command: cd
Parameter: X:\Path\In\Active
Work Path: X:\Path\In\Inactive

Also you may use same trick in directory hotlist (Ctrl+D), just specify path for active panel after cd command and path for inactive one in field 'Target path:'.
Also you may use TCMC to set paths for both panels, it allows to choose, use new tabs or not and use left/right or source/target.
