<drop>vs <get drop>

[xy-man]

<drop> and<get drop> seem not to be functionally equivalent
when dropping multiple files/folders from a XYplorer pane.

Tested with this catalog script items:
(1) ::text "AAA <drop> BBB"
vs
(2) ::text "AAA <get drop> BBB"

(2) => <get drop> uses <crlf> as separator to concatenate several file/folder items
(1) => <drop> uses something else (0-byte??) as separator to concatenate several file/folder items
with the effect that the text is "broken" after the first file/folder item.

Is this a bug or did I miss something?

Hi xy-man,
Based on what you're saying, are we suppose to see a different result when running your 2 examples form the address bar? I get identical results.
"AAA BBB"
When I droped a file on the 2 different versions as a catalog item, the results were also identical:
"AAA D:\Tools\XYplorer\toolbars.ini BBB"

Whoops! You are right...

[klownboy]

Yeah, I see it too. I lost track that you were referring to dropping multiple files. Sorry.

[admin]

Next version <drop> and <get drop> are identical.

Of course, <get drop> is a bit more powerful in that you can customize the separator, e.g. <get drop |>.

@klownboy:
no problem, never

@don:
Thanks!! BTW, I posted this issue here because XYplorer is so powerful and customizable
that I could have missed something by not reading the docs carefully.
I hope there are some friendly/forgiving exception handlers installed should I ever raise a RTFM-exception
