Spot'n'Jump Minor Enhancements.

Post by SkyFrontier »

Is it possible for Spot'n'Jump to support multiple entries so it could directly jump to a known file name without the need to jump thru all items containing a single word?

Code: Select all

>chuck berry\
-jumps to "chuck berry.txt" on a list like:
straw berry.txt
chuck's revenge.mp3
chuck berry.txt
Thanks!

I've tried everything prior to posting, Don.
>chuck berry| only activates spot (coloring), but it doesn't JUMPS to the file itself like >chuck does. I was assuming it was a bug, but had to confirm. Confirmed, then...?
Thank you!

Each new "Spot 'n' Jump" entry could rescan the list starting from top (optional parameter?); also, distinguish among files/folders only, or all items (current, default).

"Color Filters" could be used in parallel with Spot'n'Jump, auto-highlighting predefined words as long as they are displayed in list.
It wouldn't be bad if matching files and folders could be stored anywhere, acting like a Tags 2.0 enhancement, thus being search-able, too.

Scanning after C:\Arquivos de programas\ComPlus Applications;

Address Bar: >ComPlus Applications.

Expected: jumping to ComPlus Applications.

Happens: spotting on/off.
If I just do >ComPlus or >Applications, it correctly jumps to the item(s), cyclic if more than one.
(I still refer "s'n'j" as "spot", but "jump" is the thing to me).
