The program have to assume/guess that the files belong together and I think that can be dangerous. and lead to issues..  Maybe..

Just to clarify. I meant if USESHELL applied then MC should perform copy via Windows shell API.

You still can have [almost] the same behaviour with MC (tested on Win7), but you'll have to use Ctrl+C/Ctr+X/Ctrl+V instead of F5/F6

Mathias
Actually, this is possible in Win7. See here

BTW, an option may be added to custom commands Copy/Move/Delete like USESHELL which would perform file operation via Explorer. It could make writing user script an easier task.

Code: [Select]

@var $args = "\"" + GetArgs() + "\"";

Imagine:

Code: [Select]

[NAME_files]
NAME.html
If i understand correctly, abrogard wants MC to automatically copy/move [NAME_files] folder when he copies/moves NAME.html

I've already suggested using Decimal/Binary prefixes.

1 kilo == 1000
1 kibi == 1024

1 kilo can't be 1024.

That screenshot from XP ?? damn XP is ugly

No. It's Win7 with disabled themes. I don't like themes.

There is a point with unification.
But the problem is to have a lot of disabled things there, Then some user going to complain why can't I do this and this there. I see the option but can change them.
For now it will not change..

The slogan of MC is 'File management for Professionals', so there is no need to disable something.

Anyway, I don't ask to implement it in the next RC or release. Just an idea.

FileTypes ? So when editing a file if the file is a *.txt file and it is older then 2006 open it with notepad++ ?  Hmm
Not really seeing the use case for using it with file types. There might be some very uncommon case for it.

In case of File types some UI elements in Adv. filters dialog might be disabled, e.g.:

• Only File matching tab is visible
• Include and Exclude combos are disabled(grayed) and are Extension part/Is
• File content is disabled

The reason is unification. Same way of managing, same UI, less code, less mistakes etc. From my point of view of course.

File coloring uses adv. filters, File search uses them too. So the next step is integrating adv. filters with File Types

1. I have no error in v5.9

2. If I understand your task right, you do wrong thing. You should either add separate search and replace patterns for each letter

Code: [Select]

search = ж
replace = zh
or press [...] and add single block

Code: [Select]

|_
а|a
б|b
в|v
г|g
д|d
е|e
ж|zh
з|z
и|i
й|y
к|k
л|l

у|u
ф|f
х|h
ц|c
ч|ch
ш|sh
щ|sch
ы|y
ь|j

P.S. This is for non-RegEx search. I haven't tried RegEx.

If toolbar == quick launch bar, then...
1. Menu Configuration > User defined commands
2. Create and save new command:

Code: [Select]

Command type = Internal commands
Module       = Multicommander (base)
Command      = Swap the location of left/right panel3. Right click quick launch bar and choose Insert user defined command
4. Select your command and press [OK]

It's not a bug. By default MC only saves local paths. Saving all paths can be toggled via Explorer Panel Settings > Display > Save on exit > Save only paths to local harddrive option.

Support and Feedback / Re: Error during opening 7z file created using Multi Commander.

« on: December 28, 2015, 17:13:35 »

One more problem. If you pack a folder with locked file, operation completes successfully, but archive is broken. File operations log contains fail record, but if logs are disabled you will not see that something was wrong.

One of the way to reproduce:

Code: [Select]

1. Hide MC logs
2. Create a folder and copy some files there
3. Copy e.g. *.xls file in that folder
4. Open that *.xls file in Excel
5. Try to 7z-pack the folder

I have just noticed that MC shows me that there is 10GB used on C drive, but folder Windows has 14GB. Someone has an idea why?

Maybe it is because of links. Check Core Settings > File System > Junctions and Symbolic links > When sizing folders

Script / Re: MultiScript Name selection excluding file extension?

« on: December 07, 2015, 10:03:26 »

1. StrIsRegExpMatch function compares string with RegEx pattern, it doesn't perform search. So it always returns 1 if success and 0 otherwise. It's a state, not position.

2. $text[$pos] =  assignment modifies only one single character in the string.

So if you want to find a position of RegExp in your string, you should use StrRegExpFind function. But unfortunately it returns only position, so you [probably] can't extract matching substring.

IMHO StrRegExpFind function should be improved to return array of (pos; len) if possible.

The very first time you have to press [Target].
Then check "Use target path as default location". MC will rememver that.
