+ Address Bar, Catalog, Favorites, Go to, UDC-Goto: Now the asterisk
wildcard (*) is allowed within the location term. The location is
automatically resolved to the first (in original file system sort
order) matching file or folder item.
Examples:
C:\* = C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
C:\Programs\XY* = C:\Programs\XYplorer\
C:\Programs\XYplorer\XY* = C:\Programs\XYplorer\XYplorer.cnt
You can use the wildcard also in the middle of the term and more
than once:
C:\Pr*m*\ = C:\Programs\
C:\Programs\XYplorer\XY*.exe = C:\Programs\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe
C:\Pro*\ACD*\*.exe = C:\Programs\ACDSee32\ACDSee32.exe
But don't stress this little usability gimmick too much. This, for
example, will not work as you might expect it to:
C:\*\ACD*\*.exe != C:\Programs\ACDSee32\ACDSee32.exe
Instead it will resolve to the first match and stop there:
C:\*\ACD*\*.exe = C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
In other words: wildcards are resolved from left to right, and
since there is no C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT\ACD*, the process halts.
+ UDC | Open With: added two new variables, <item1> and <item2>.
They are set to the first and second item of the currently selected
list items. The following term will open UltraEdit with the first
two of all selected items in the given order.
"UEdit32" <item1> <item2>
Any other selected items are ignored. If you select only one or no
item, the call will very likely fail, of course.
If you expect blanks in the items' names and if the called
application supports quoted arguments, you should put quotes
around the variables:
"UEdit32" "<item1>" "<item2>"
Note: The order of items is determined by the focus and the
current sort order in the following way (which strictly follows
the standards set by Windows Explorer): the focused item is always
the first, the next items are the following items downwards until
the bottom, then the sequence wraps to the top of the selected
items until the cycle is completed. It sounds a bit confusing
but is very simple and logical, as you see in these 3 examples:
Example 1:
- item #1 focused item
- item #2
- item #3
Example 2:
- item #3
- item #1 focused item
- item #2
Example 3:
- item #2
- item #3
- item #1 focused item
! UDC: when deleting a UDC with a KS assigned, the KS was not freed
for later usage. Fixed.
! UDC | Open, Open With: parameters were not passed when no variable
was contained. Fixed.
