goto & open works together in inputselect

[yusef88]

hi, this command gets the contents of my paper folder "favs"

Code: Select all

open inputselect("Favs",  listfolder(paper:favs));

it opens files fine by double click, how to make it go to folders also by dblclick

Code: Select all

$item = inputselect("Favs",  listfolder(paper:favs)); if (Exists($item) == 1) { open $item; } else { goto $item; }

Got a little carried away when moving the open - glad you figured it out!

You'd have to use getkey to read them out of <xydata>\<xyini>, which means you'll have to force at least a savesettings 1 to ensure you get the current list of favs.

Also since favorites can have captions you'd have to do some additional processing to ensure you're $item contains a location.

It's certainly possible though.
