Re: Global variables in scripting

I think the method with $g_ as prefix is strange and unusual.
But nevertheless I like it, too!

Re: MP3 preview question...

Even though it only seems to be happening to me, it's happening on 3 very different systems. That's why I went through the list of common software (anti-virus, etc.) I use on all 3 and tried to narrow it down. No luck yet. But at least they have in common, that they are yours. So could it be possib...

Re: Multi-select into edit mode

Actually, I'd think so too! So, with multiple files selected a click should just select the clicked file and remove the other selections, right? For me this sounds and feels so natural that I will just implement it and wait for anybody crying for the old way... :twisted: A little late, but also fro...

Re: Spaces at the end of extensions

Strange: I don't know the rules, but I think I know how to apply them? For me the command has 2 parts: 1) building "new name" by regular expression 2) renaming a file to the "new name" If the regular expression leads to a "new name" with trailing blank, then it's so. If...

Re: Capitalization does more than it should

Using capitalization seems to mean, that the current use of capital letters (in a filename or whatever) isn't correct. So I think it's fine, if use of the function leads to a reliable way of capitalization - what it does. (If the name would be in CamelCase, you would not need capitalization...) Now ...

Re: Resort list immediately upon rename

If I want to drive from A to B, and my sister, living in C, wants to come with me, I would laugh about someone saying that driving from A to B is driving from ... Sometimes driving to B depends on ... This analogy is incorrect because it introduces a condition, your sister, who lives in C. The name...

Re: Scripting Bugs

XY vars are extremely malformed from the POV of scripting syntax since they contain operators in the name. For me the current state is totally okay, and I will move on to other challenges. For me a strange combination of facts. By the way: one thing isn't right I think? XY vars do not contain opera...

Re: Scripting Bugs

OK, I understand. But I don't like the idea of "quoted variables". Though I see it's a special situation for special variables. To me it seems the problem is the ambiguous use of <> for compare and for xy-vars. So back to the ignored part of my prev post: why not use functions to resolve X...

Re: Scripting Bugs

OK - two themes here. Order of precedence: this is the sequence in that operators are resolved - no matter how they are parsed. (The latter is Don's job programming the logic - while we, the users, want to know how our statements are interpreted.) I just had a look at php, it says: < and > are lower...

Re: Scripting Bugs

I don't understand :cry: Didn't you say: Comparisons are evaluated before math :?: Doesn't that mean msg 10 - 1 > 3 - 2; / is identical to msg 10 - (1 > 3) - 2; / :?: :?: I think the parantheses say to evaluate the comparison first? After not understanding this I'm afraid to ask: isn't <data w> one ...

Re: countdown

Don't understand PHP related to this till now... Is comparison ("A" > "B") allowed, or only (2 > 3)? What if (2 > "A") or ("2" > "A")? I found that (1 == "1") is true, so it seams PHP can interpret numeric strings as numbers? In this case I...

Re: Teracopy does not pickup drag and drop inside Xyplorer.

Isn't here something wrong in run """%programfiles%\TeraCopy\teracopy.exe" $op *"<xypath>\teracopylist.tmp" "$path\"""; ? Shouldn't it be run """%programfiles%\TeraCopy\teracopy.exe"" $op *""<xypath>\teracopylist.tm...
