I have some weird stuff going on. Here is my script.

Code: Select all

$path = itematpos();
$number_of_tabs = tab("get", "index", -1);
$index = 0;
while ($number_of_tabs > 0){
	if($path == tab("get", "path", $number_of_tabs)){
		$index = tab("get", "index", $number_of_tabs);
		break;
	}
	$number_of_tabs--;
}
if($index != 0){
	seltab $index;
}else{
	tab("new", $path);
}

I use it for CEA Middle-click on folder. It basically either opens a path in a new tab if no existing tab matches the path or reusing existing tab if there is one which does match. It works fine in List and Unlocked Tree.

But as soon as I lock the Tree it starts behaving weird. The selection in the Locked Tree stops following the path changing.

Works fine here...

Btw, a much more concise script would be:

Code: Select all

    $path    = itematpos();
    $tabs    = get("Tabs", <crlf>);
    $matches = regexmatches($tabs, "^" . regexreplace($path, "([\\.+(){\[^$])", "\$1") . "$", <crlf>);
    if ($matches) { seltab gettokenindex(gettoken($matches, 1, <crlf>), $tabs, <crlf>, ""); }
    else          { tab("new", $path); }

Your script, clean app, same weird stuff...
