user command title include space character

[ts4242]

if you added new user command with title contain spaces e.g. em_My Cmd, it will accepted but when you finish creating this command the final result will be em_My and if you try to execute it you will get "Function not implemented!" message.

maybe you should not let the user enter spaces in the usercmd.ini/wcmd_xxx.ini dialog box or it is better to auto replace spaces in the title with underscore "_"

Try to use the code ALT+255 by space, it work fine for me.

[em_mine(ALT+255)commannd]

the problem is not how to write "_" but it is that TC accept titles including spaces then truncates it when you choose this command

BTW: writing "_" with my keyboard is much easier just Shift+minus symbol

Yes, I'm agree with you. I also hope view that it works as you describe in final version
(ALT+255) Only is a temporary solution for solve the aesthetic of commands.

Thanks, I will show an error message.

in the same dialog usercmd.ini/wcmd_xxx.ini an empty title is accepted too (just em_ only) although it is work but it is strange!
maybe this case need another error message

[ghisler(Author)]

em_ is not forbidden! It may be used for some often needed command, e.g. on the command line.

[ts4242]

for me, it is strange to have command with empty title (supposing em_ is just identifier prefix), beside that if a user need quick access to a command, it is easier to assign Alias for it.

anyway it is cosmetic issue!

[ts4242]

fixed in beta 4
but i was prefer replcing spaces with "_" instead of removing them!

If i am not wrong, Sombra was not speaking about writing "_" symbol, that obviously is much easier to write with Shift+minus symbol, he was talking about being able to use spaces in em_xyz commands.

"_" char        Hex value is 5F
ALT+255      Hex value is A0
Space char   Hex value is 20


So that you should try [em_mine(ALT+255)command] to get [em_mine command] as Sombra said, it works .

on my computer Alt+255 doesn't type (like) space character but it type a local character, so it depend on your local lanaguage code page

Hello !

• Maybe ALT+0160 could do the trick ? This is an ANSI coded space I use without any problem in various places…
- Without "0", one types an ASCII code, it's well known…

(Alt+255) and (Alt+0160) type space in text editor (Notepad) but inside TC, the both type the same local character
I think this is is because my "Regional and Language options" for non-unicode programs

That seems to be the reason of the problem, Sombra&I use same regional settings (Spanish).
 
I've checked Clo's ALT+0160 and i get same HEX value that with ALT+255  A0.

I am not sure if this will help you, but i had a similar problem time ago (not with Tc but with Batch files), i solved it using UltraEdit -> Format Menu -> OEM to ANSI  or  ANSI to OEM commands.
Maybe this way you'll get local char in UltraEdit but space char in Tc. Bye.

Not help!
maybe according to my local language code page i should use different code than Alt+255 to type space, but because i'm not interested to have spaces in em_xxx commands so i'll not search
