OSX Samba Share Path

Post by threedot »

Designers use OSX and they are sending file locations like smb://192.168.50.141/designs/foo/bar/baz

I replace path to \\192.168.50.141\designs\foo\bar\baz everytime and this thing irritate me.

Paste OSX path format & Navigate sharing folder can be very helpful.

In the meantime you could use a small oneliner:

Code: Select all

goto replace(replace(<clipboard>, "/", "\"), "smb:");
You just need to copy the smb:// path to the clipboard and the script will navigate to it...

Currently, when you paste "smb://192.168.50.141/designs/foo/bar/baz" into the list then Type Ahead Find will look for a file or folder named "baz".

This has been added here:

Code: Select all

v16.90.0305 - 2016-06-17 16:57
    + Paste and Find: Now you can paste a full URL to find and highlight the 
      corresponding file in the current list. For example:
        Pasted Text:  https://www.xyplorer.com/whatsnew.php
                 or:  www.xyplorer.com/whatsnew.php
         Found File:  whatsnew.php
If I understand you correctly you want to paste "smb://192.168.50.141/designs/foo/bar/baz" and then go to "\\192.168.50.141\designs\foo\bar\baz" automatically, right?

That would need another setting or tweak I think to select between the two behaviors.

Yes. I want to navigate automatically.
