Directories without [square brackets] around them

Post by *DRP535 »

Can someone please remind me what the tweak setting is or the line that needs to go in wincmd.ini to remove the default [square brackets] around directories in the TC windows?

I had to reinstall TC and didn't back up my ini files and now I've lost this one tweak I liked.

Thanks

That would be the:
DirBrackets=1 Show square brackets around directories (1/0, default=1)
Setting.

Within the wincmd.ini under [Configuration] add
DirBrackets=0

See also in the help under 4.b

Best regards,

I can't believe this option hasn't made it into the configuration dialog yet :?

Thanks guys. I consider my wrist well and truly slapped for not reading the Help before posting. I shall remember to do that first in future!

Cheers.

There are addon tools that do that like TweakTC. But even in those cases not ALL settings are included. :P

It's weird but history has proven that all ini tweaking tools are soon forgotten by their developers! :(
