Introduction

Content plug-ins provide additional information and properties for files and directories. In addition content plug-ins can be used to find text in binary documents.

Examples

The possibilities for Content plug-ins are infinite. Just a few examples:

  • title, genre, year of music- or video documents
  • Comments or keywords from documents
  • Full text search in Word or PDF documents

Functionality

Total Commander devlivers a file name to the plug-in. How this information is retrieved is plug-in's business. The plug-in sends the retrieved information back to Total Commander. Total Commander will now display the received information or process it in another way. The chapter "Use" deals with this application areas.

Use

Content plug-ins can be used in many ways.
