Its not only the exe file but also many config files (ini and csv).
They are clearly don't belong to XY and it has no benefit to mix this files into the XY folder.

Oh? Well, I obviously see a benefit or I wouldn't be asking but if it's a bad idea and could mess something up, I'll of course avoid it.

He meant: Directly inside XY's root folder, not as a subfolder of it...

Ah ok...makes more sense because I couldn't figure out why it would be ill-advised.

Thanks for the script. Would you happen to know how to display "Run Count" column?

The search syntax works [runcount:>1] -- but the run count isn't displayed anywhere since that is an Everything feature rather than XYplorer feature.

I tried "RunCount", but no luck.

Code: Select all

; The columns that the paper folder will show
; Default: Name,Path,Size,Modified,Created
ColumnLayout=Name,RunCount

Open Everything, add the column. Done. This script calls es.exe the command line utility, it doesn't change the Everything gui

As Highend said but you should not left out the path column.
What should XY do in a Paper folder with only name and run count

He would want to show the runcount in a (custom) column in XY? That's not possible, the paperfolder that is used to show the results can't handle that

Good script, one of the great plug-ins for XY browser

When I execute the 0.96 version of everything in XYPlorer get the scripting debug message

Dubious Syntax: #ResolveJunctionsAll

How do I resolve this?

Wrong thread, my versions don't contain the line you've quoted...

Apart from that, put that part into single or double quotes^^

For me the version v0.9.6 contains the line

Code: Select all

    $curPath = (<curpath> LikeI "*paper:*") ? "*" : property("#ResolveJunctionsAll", <curpath>);

Its works fine here with syntax checking enabled.
v0.9.6 was the version with Codepage changing and is not available in the first post.

Thanks for the replies, I ended up going back to the 0.9.5 release.

I'm curious if there is a way to create an "Indexed List" with all the files/folders indexed by Everything, and then reference that list when there is no active instance of Everything. When there is an active instance you can update the list.

I find that I'm usually searching for old files that have already been indexed, so this seems like it'd make XY more independent from Everything and would make it so Everything wouldn't always need to be running.

Sure, write a simple script for it.

Export everything via es.exe, present an input requester for your search.
Regex escape that input and use a regexmatches on the exported index
Open it in a paperfolder...

You can store the Everything Paper folder under other names having serveral index versions.
But I don't see any reason to not have Everything running in the background.
Its one of its biggest features always having an actcual index
and it doesn't use to many resources in the background.
I even never use any file managers native search features (XYplorer, Total Commander and Free Commander).
My primary search is the Everything GUI and the Autohotkey script here in the forum
to create a Paper folder from the results if needed.
