like popupmenu with the flag = 1?

I'm showing all open tabs via inputselect (because live filtering _rocks_!) and if you have more than one tab with the same destination folder I'm unable to switch to the correct one (by scripting) if it's not the first entry for that folder that get's selected. At least I can't find a way to do so...

An index would allow me to do so even if the list get's filtered

Thanks for the suggestion.

//inputselect without visible pollution
  $ch = inputselect(, "C: |D:  |E:   ",,0);
  msg strlen($ch)-strlen(trim($ch,,"R"));
