:biggrin: It works! Needs a little modification: use !! instead of ! so no popup and the parameter order meeds to be changed. $selitems = get("SelectedItemsNames", "|"); foreach($item, $selitems) { goto ("!! mklink /h "."C:\sync\".$item." ".$item);} ...

Hi, I want to write a script that make a hardlink of files I selected to a folder for synchronization purposes. I need to specify the separator to be a space, I tried '\ ', '\s', all doesn't work, please help me. Here is the script: foreach($var, <selitems>, separator= ) { goto "! mklink /h&quo...

Hello everyone,
Is there a way that I can use dos command like dir, junction , mklink in xyplorer scripts?
I tried put a ! in front of the command but it only works in the address bar. How to make it work everywhere?
Thank you!

That works. Thank you.

OK. It will be very nice if the moveto command has a hardlink option.
Thank you!

What I meant is paste the hardlink to a folder that is not open int the current tab sets, for instance, I want to put some files in a specific backup folder. So is it possible to pass a parameter to the command 208?
Thank you very much!

The command paste as hardlink only has a code number. But I tried the following format and it didn't work.
::#208 "C:\Library";
The other command like copyto and moveto don't seem to have a hardlink option.
Many thanks!

Hi Everyone, By default the tag added by typing into the tag tab in the info pane is not shown in the tag list, does anyone know how to scan all tagged items and add all tags to the tag list, also where the tag list is stored so I may write a script that centralize the management of all my tags on s...

I have a suggestion for the tag data base management. Just let xyporer put a tag data base on every disk including removable disks, let user specify the database locations, remove entry if the file is deleted immediately, if all files linked with a tag is deleted remove that tag too. so the data bas...

Yes, may be another tab in the IP for this should be added. This could be more convenient than info tips, you can directly edit the comment and tags there.

Some comments and tags are long and it is very hard to read in a column, especially on small screens like netbook screens. Another advantage of puting comments and tags in the info panel is user can use arrows to view comments for different files.

"create a tag list in the catalog and just select your items and tag them. "
Thank you for your suggestion.

I think the feature I am suggesting is useful. If you are a student, and you have many files e.g. papers, one paper may be related to different topic, say I have a paper about both experiment and modelling, but I want to concentrate on one topic at a time, for instance, I just want to write somethin...

I admit that it's impossible to avoid orphan tags. I now just want an alternative pane that can show a tree view of tags like in DiviFile, just to make an option to make one pane display all the tags and their relations. Just try DiviFile, it's free, and you will see what I mean.

and I think in DiviFile, you will never get an orphaned tag, the tag tree view is the virtual filesystem already mentioned in the forum. Tag2find and taggedfrog are two other applications which I think XYexplorer can learn from. Tag2find is better than taggedfrog, it uses less memory and handy, but ...
