Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Shaping the Future of MultiCommander - Your Feedback on Development Priorities

« on: April 30, 2025, 10:17:33 »

Just for some clarification

You do not want to configure it to use the  Cascadia-code font, you want it to automatically pick it as default if available ? (auto download I don't think I will add.. I don't want MC to automatically mess with a users system.)
Powershell syntax coloring are actually comming soon. Im not using it so much so when it is there. let me know how it works
Access to Text tools from MultiViewer is a good ide. I will look into that

The Manage multiple servers at once think are intressting.. Not sure how to implement it right now. Bit tricky. but very intressting, 
But can you mail me with more details on how you would use somethings like that. Copy one file and it is auto copied to all locations that are grouped ?  even delete ? rename ? what more? any ide and thougth you have around that would be great and I can see if something like that can be added. However It is a big and complex feature so can take some time to add. But I really like the idea.

Hello Mathias,

I've seen that you can embed the font in the application and load it directly, without having to install it in the system. If this is possible in Multi-Commander, it could be an option in the preferences to use Cascadia code by default. If this is not possible, you could indeed propose the option if the system has it.

For 'powershell' syntax highlighting, it's great. I could compare it with the display in Visual Studio Code! I'll let you know as soon as this option is available in the application.

For the last part, I'll try to lay the foundations of the need to expose you the vision I have of it. I'll send you the email as soon as possible.

A good day to everyone.

Hello,

- To use (and install when it is not present) the cascadia-code font (https://github.com/microsoft/cascadia-code) at least for MultiDataViewer default configuration.
- To have by default in MultiDataViewer, a powershell color syntax formatting that is imitates the syntax highlighting that visual studio code is using (it is quiet difficult to be exhaustive when creating our own).
   It may be possible to use their définitions ? https://github.com/PowerShell/EditorSyntax/tree/main
   It is true for the common file syntax in use actually, XML, INI (MC files), JSON, PY and Ruby.
- An extension to analyze disk space graphically and/or as a percentage. Some examples : https://www.info24android.com/les-10-meilleurs-outils-gratuits-pour-analyser-lespace-disque-dur-sur-votre-pc-windows/
- Format document in Multidataviewer for common files (XML, JSON mainly) without modifying / saving the file by default (option when closing the viewer ?)

Concerning the workflow, I have to manage several servers via administratives share to operate the same actions.
- The idea is via the GUI (no script) to be able to apply file operations to a list of computers (ex \\MyComputerName01.fqdn.com\c$\MyWorkingFolder, \\MyComputerName02.fqdn.com\c$\MyWorkingFolder).
- The active panel in this case will be a computer of the computer list.

Regards.

- Many dialog is not change to DarkMode. All of them will not be change. But request the dialogs that pops up often for you that you want to be updated.

Hello Mathias,
I think it might be a lot of work, but what about the MultiDataViewer? I often use it, so I'm trying my luck.

Hello,

If you want to exchange with most of us, please use a 'common' language as English.
Your question:
Where does most of the content on this site come from?
It is the creator of the application that is managing all the web site and also gives 99% of the answers of this forum.

Is it possible to share information?
What do you mean? What do you want to do with the content?
Do you want to help translate to Finnish?

As everything is Matthias property, once again, ask him directly your thoughts.

Best regards.

Support and Feedback / Re: Portable Editions?!

« on: September 03, 2016, 14:04:24 »

Hello,

See http://multicommander.com/docs/Installation

Portable Installer (.zip)
The portable installer is named MultiCommander_x64_Portable_([version]).zip or MultiCommander_win32_Portable_([version]).zip
The portable package is a zip archive that you only need to unpack to a folder. Just make sure that you keep the folder structure from the zip package.
The portable version is the same as the installed version. The difference is that the portable version is configured to store all settings and configuration in the folder that Multi Commander is installed in and run from.
The portable version does not save anything to the registry or to the user account folder. Everything is saved in the Multi Commander folder. So the program must have write permissions to the folder that you start Multi Commander from.
This version is ideal to be installed to - and run from - a USB memory stick.

Regards.

Hi Alan,

If I remember correctly my exchanges with Mathias on this, it is a way of commenting entries in English reference files. It is not impacting the translation process.
He told me that he may be cleaned one day.

Script / Script to retreive and/or update sysinternals tools

« on: July 22, 2014, 21:59:30 »

I share my script in case of it can interest other people.
The need is to update "Process Explorer" tools from Sysinternals to the last version.
It verifies the registry to see if the EULA has been accepted. If it is the case, it retreives the running path to overwrite it if a newer version exists.
If no EULA, retreives the last version in a defined path.

The only possible problems is that live.sysinternlas.com may take a long time to respond.

Code: [Select]

// 191.236.128.229 = live.sysinternals.com
// Return Only wants "num"

@var $ProcExpOnlineVersion, $ProcExpLocalVersion;
@var $ProcExpOnlinePath, $ProcExpLocalPath;

@var $ExecutableName = "procexp.exe";
@var $ExeRegName = "Process Explorer";
@var $l, $o;


function GetOnlineVersion($ExecutableName)
{
 @var $Result
 $ProcExpOnlinePath = '\\191.236.128.229\Tools' ^ $ExecutableName;
 $ProcExpOnlineVersion = GetFileProp($ProcExpOnlinePath , "ExtendedProp.prodVersion");
 $Result= StrReplace($ProcExpOnlineVersion , "." , "" );
 return $Result;
}

function GetLocalVersion($ExeRegName)
{
 @var $Result
 @var $exists = RegKeyExists("HKCU","Software\\Sysinternals\\" + $ExeRegName );
 if( $exists == 1 )
 {
  $ProcExpLocalPath = RegValueGetSZ("HKCU","Software\\Sysinternals\\" + $ExeRegName, "OriginalPath");
  $ProcExpLocalVersion= GetFileProp($ProcExpLocalPath , "ExtendedProp.prodVersion");
  $Result= StrReplace($ProcExpLocalVersion, "." , "" );
  return $Result;
 }
 else
 {
  $ProcExpLocalPath = "C:\\Temp" ^ $ExecutableName;
  return 0;
 }
}

function CopySysTool()
{
 CopyFile( $ProcExpLocalPath , $ProcExpOnlinePath , "NODIALOG, OVERWRITE_ALL");
}

$o = GetOnlineVersion($ExecutableName);
$l = GetLocalVersion($ExeRegName);

if( StrCompareNoCase($l , "0" ) == 0 )
{
 CopySysTool();
}
else
{
 if($o > $l)
 {
  CopySysTool();
 }
}

Hello PBDier.nl,

Do you plan to realize the NL Language? If not, I can help in the way of realizing the translation files using online tools, but as I do not know at all NL language I will not understand the results and for sure it will need corrections, ... So if you are ready to verify/correct the work, I can work on it. Let me know.
