ALT+F7 search also in outstanding tabs

[heeloud16]

I wonder if it is possible to do a search (ALT+F7) on all selected tabs.
Now you are only able to select one tab at the time.

It would be very convenient if a search could be done on a selection of the current open tabs. For instance with a intermediate screen to select which tabs should be included in the search.

This total commander is a tool I'm using for years now. It is perfect!
Hopefully this new requirement can be added to a new version.

Thnks!!!

Here is a workaround in PowerPro:

Hi Thanks for you quick reply.

Any idea how to enable the scripts in Total Commander.
I downloaded the script Sub_MultiFind.txt and Sub_TreatCL.txt and moved them to the \scripts\ folder of PowerPro.

Then I followed some instructions on the PowerPro Q&A to link a button to this script. As far as I can see this script does not receive any paramaters to I added this to my command in Total Commander:

runfile.Sub_MultiFind

but this is given the error message:
"Cannot access configuration file
C:\Program Files\PowerPro\runfile.Sub_MultiFind.pcf"

I did not download a *.pcf file, and the script is in the scripts folder.
Please help.

Thkns in advance.

Unfortunately I dont use PP, but AFAIK there is pretty detailed explanation on the webpage. Or wait for Vochomurka, he is a regular visitor here...

Ok thanks for the info.

Hopefully Vochomurka will notice these questions. I can already let you know that the problem described above is solved. It was related to the fact that PowerPro was not running at that time.

Now everything is in place, and everything is running. In powerpro scripts folder the following scripts are placed:
Multifind.txt
Sub_Alias.txt
Sub_CloseAllTabs.txt
Sub_ReadTabs.txt
Sub_TreatCL.txt

And within some of these I changed the path to reflect the right one.
However when I search now in Total Commander (using a user menu item which is calling power pro runfile.Multifind) the search screen is started, but it is still only searching in the active tab. So the search is not done for the other open tabs at that moment.

Mr. Vochomurka do you know if I have forgotten something, or did something wrong.
Also nice to let you know is that the button "Drives" is overwritten with a text out of the powerpro scripts or something. I think something is going wrong.

Thanks in advance for your comments mr Vochomurka.
