Move/Copy/Backup To & <src...> variables

Post by jacky »

Code: Select all

    * UDC Move To, Copy To, and Backup To enhanced. Now you can do 
      something like this: 
        ::backupto D:\Archives\XY_<srcver>_<dyyyy-mm-dd>, 
            <xypath>\XYplorer.exe 
          Backups the current XYplorer.exe to this location: 
          D:\Archives\XY_6.80.0071_2008-02-12\XYplorer.exe 
      Means: If a source is defined, the first source item can be 
      referred to by <src...> variables in the location term. 
      The same now works in scripting commands moveto, copyto, and 
      backupto. 
Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't get this to work! Not in script, not manually, not using UDC :?

Oh, sorry, you are right. Fixed. I swear it worked -- somebody must have changed the code while I was asleep... :wink:
