Search multiple drives?
« on: April 23, 2013, 18:47:02 »
Is it possible to run a search on several drives?  Is there some separator I can use?
i.e can I enter something to allow the 'look in' field to take multiple locations?

As far as I can tell if I search c:\ I must run a new search on d:\, & I cannot tell the search to search several drives sequentially.

Separator is ";"

Eg "D:\;E:\;F:\Stuff;G:\Folder42"

Thanks Mathias, given that you use that for multiple folder creation/naming I should have guessed....

Sorry for being a dummy!  ;)

No worries.

Kind of my fault, since the documentation is kind of incomplete.
If I had more time I would improve the documentation since it is missing a lot. But writing documentation takes more time then one might think.


( I have now updated the online documentation with a quick note about this )

I imagine there is a lot hidden away in MC that I haven't found yet.

Hope you find time to get everything resolved.
Thanks for the effort you put into this prog.   :)
