BTW, the speed difference should be hardly notable between the two:
It's the usage where /e is better.

BTW, anybody interested in having a way to enumerate folders that do NOT contain items of a certain type?

Well, that will come tomorrow...

You mean those folders that don't contain p**n?
Results: Found 0 folders out of 63413...

Hi Don,

Here is a preview of the change log:
Code: Select all
+++ Find Files and Quick Search: Added switch /p (think "parent") by which the
search will return the parent folders of the matching items.
Examples:
readme.txt /p //return all folders that contain a file readme.txt
green /Lp //return all folders that contain a file labeled "green"
/p //return all folders that are not empty (= that are parents)
Notes:
-....
Great stuff.
Is there any way we can have this logic/flags added to a SC, maybe
folderreport (aka for a complete GUI-less approach)?
Cheers,
Fullhero

One day I might implement something like this, i.e. a scripting function QuickSearch() that returns the results. But it's quite some work...

Can be already scripted gui-lessly.
