I wasn't always talking about junctions, the terminology got fumbled during the thread; I did mentione hard links a few times.SammaySarkar wrote:Then, I wonder why on earth you were talking about JUNCTIONS!

The method I described; is the method one should use to create a column that shows symbolic links / junctions, no ?
Although, after doing all this, the junctions / symbolic links are not colorized ?
One should run any of the above commands with the hard link file selected ?SammaySarkar wrote:try this color filter definition.or this one, which is given in the help file, in the color filters page.Code: Select all

There's no way to distinguish between an original file and it's hardlink*, so both will be colored.
[*in fact, there's no such thing as "original file".]
good bye now.
The first color filter worked, my hard link is colored. The junction column is not required. I assume there is no way for XY to list where the hard link location is related to ?SammaySarkar wrote:try this color filter definition.or this one, which is given in the help file, in the color filters page.Code: Select all

Correct. Although this could be done with a custom column, a script, and a command line tool. Google knows more about such tools...I assume there is no way for XY to list where the hard link location is related to ?
Anything in particular I should search for or that you are aware of ?highend wrote:Correct. Although this could be done with a custom column, a script, and a command line tool. Google knows more about such tools...I assume there is no way for XY to list where the hard link location is related to ?
Your reply was more of a blues clues, why I asked ?highend wrote:No, just search for "weather statistics"... It will 100% match what the whole thread is all about...
HighEnd, I've asked around and outside of XYplorer, I've been told it's not possible ?highend wrote:Correct. Although this could be done with a custom column, a script, and a command line tool.
