AutoHotkey: AppendLnk option for packing (plus: Automatically assign name for archive)
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
Context sensitive extension of TC's suggested name in packing dialog (Alt-F5),
emulating the missing AppendLnkPack option in TC.
Successfully tested with TC 6.03a up to TC 9.50 (b11).
- - Stays resident in memory, can be quit via its icon in the system tray.
- - Gets invoked with Alt+F5, replacing TC's standard name suggestion.
- - The originally suggested name can be restored by pressing Alt-Backspace once, if needed.
; // Resulting archive name: ; // - if only 1 file selected -------------------- : zip:filename.ext.zip (*.*.zip) ; // - if multiple files / same name selected : zip:filename.zip ( *.zip) ; // - if multiple files / different names selected : zip:dirname.zip (as suggested by TC)
