load search template and open search box directly

[yusef88]

can i load search template and open search box directly instead press ctrl+f then load template

[highend]

Scripting would help...

Code: Select all

    $template = popupmenu(replace(listfolder("<xydata>\FindTemplates", "*.ini", 4), ".ini"));
    loadsearch $template, "x";
    #260;

Depending on what you need, you eventually have to edit the "x" (see help file for loadsearch()).

excellent your script leads me to read in help file, to load certian template i use this
loadsearch "1", l ;#260;

[yusef88]

why variables like "%computer%" "%programfiles%" don't work in find files

[highend]

For the location field?
%programfiles% works fine for me...

try it in excluded folders it won't work

try it in excluded folders it won't work

You should be able to exclude it when you store it with the template and use the "e" option for loadsearch()

[yusef88]

Code: Select all

::loadsearch "pc", l;#260;"

when using above command can fill search box by words exist in "<clipboard>" or in general start a search with clipboard ?

[highend]

Extend the script by making a temp version of the template and insert what's currently in the clipboard into it and load that one instead.

[yusef88]

mean like this?

Code: Select all

[Named]
Named="Test"

but what is the clipboard is variable and change every time i need something similar to that

Code: Select all

tab("new", "<clipboard>");

Code: Select all

?"<clipboard>"

[highend]

No... Templates don't support variables that you can only get by scripting.

Code: Select all

    $template = "<xydata>\FindTemplates\pc.ini";
    $content = regexreplace(readfile($template), "^(Named="")([^""]+)", "$1<clipboard>");
    writefile($template, $content);
    loadsearch getpathcomponent($template, "base"), "l";
