Support and Feedback / Re: MC not playing nice with mobile phone

Firstly, thanks for the replies (I forgot to add that to my last post - apologies - old age, I guess).

Secondly, I found the logging section for FS-Portable; I was looking in the wrong Menu tree (also old age).

Thirdly, I solved the "problem" -  the camera times out  ("hibernates") after a couple of minutes inactivity and so can't be read at all (poor memory due to old age).

Well - a mystery indeed.

There was no option to enable logging under: Config > FileSystem Plugins > FS-Portable, so I enabled logging at the "core" level.

And the copy (and, indeed a delete)  from the camera succeeded!

Go figure

I have a similar problem.

I am trying to copy photos from a Kodak camera using WPD.  I select all files, MC opens the copy dialog correctly suggesting the target panel as destination.

I click OK, the progress bar briefly appears then... nothing: no copy.  Likewise with drag & drop.

Script / Re: CopyFile has me Beaten

Thanks Jungle and Mathias: that did it.

You'd think that after 45+ years of programming I would have learnt to read the documentation more carefully...

Script / CopyFile has me Beaten

« on: April 21, 2016, 18:34:08 »

I am trying to write a hotkeyed command to copy the file in focus to the current path.  Can some kind soul please explain why this fails (the Debugger seems to have no issue with it)?

Code: [Select]

@var $file = GetSourceFocusPath();
@var $path = PathGetPathPart($file);
@var $name = PathGetNamePart($file, 1);
@var $ext = PathGetFileExtPart($file);
@var $copytext = $path + $name + " - Copy" + $ext;
CopyFile($path, $copytext);

Script / Re: Select All Files matching the Date of File In Focus

Thanks Mathias.

FormatDate() was what I was missing.

Script / Select All Files matching the Date of File In Focus

« on: April 20, 2016, 10:41:22 »

I have been using MC for about 2 weeks now & got my head around the configuration and even written a couple of custom commands.
Now I am stumped after a couple of days of scripting failure.  I feel sure that what I want should be achievable with MultiScript, but I cannot get it to work.

I simply want to select all the files in the panel with a Last Modified Date that matches that of the file in focus.

Has anyone accomplished this or can give me some pointers?

TIA
