Hello
I have just installed MC on my PC and the portable version on a USB stick and I am trying to create a command that creates a shortcut.
However the Tools > File Links menu option that is in the non-Portable version is not there in the portable version. Is that deliberate*? I sometimes need to work on a PC on which I have a folder to which I have read-write access, but I cannot install programs on the computer. So I was hoping to use MC Portable to organise my folder structure. But shortcuts are a key part of how I make the hierarchy easy to navigate, so I'm hoping that MC portable can still do them.
Since the Create Link menu option was not available in MC portable I tried setting a Custom Command in the portable version to create a link in the same directory, next to the link target (so that the shortcut could then be moved to where it was needed), using
MC.Utils.CreateLink LNKSRC="${targetpath}${sourcefocusname} - shortcut" LNKTRG="${focusfilepath}" LNKTYPE=4
but this did not create any link.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you
* I notice that Multi Rename is also not in the menu for the portable version. Is that also deliberate?
