Sorry, I didn't test. As far as I remember it's sources, there's no reason for it not to work.

It works like this :

dirlist:
[a1] with files..
\ape
\dove
[a2]
[b1] with files..
\bear
\dear
[b2]

filter on 'a'

[a1]
[a2]

and you press ctrl+B, you will see

\ape
\dove

not

\ape
\bear
\dear

I am thinking of adding it hennes, when i got a little time again
Filtering a lot of subdirs and files in branch view will take a lot of time and make the program slow though.

And I remember from the sources, that it cannot work in Branch mode, as it simply scans the files in the current folder itself, instead of reading the panel in TC. That was the reason for my suggestion here:

is it possible:
1. if tcqsp sewindow appears, its position is the same, not depending on if searching in left or right panel. it will be better
to behave like TC quick search.

2.same dir in both panels. then the tcqsp filters both panels.
is it posssible to perform the search on actual panel only?

3. add the search history up|down keys?

thank you!

Is it possible to use a shortcut to active TC quick Search?

Is it possible to use a shortcut to active TC quick Search?

Please take a look in the TCQSP directory. There is a help file (TCqsp.chm) where all steps about hotkeys are very well explained.

2jaco:
There is a wonderful function! Can you add another function so that I can search in the descript.ion? That is, it will shrink the filelist while typeing, according to the commends of files.

Here is an example of the function what I want.
There are four files with different commends:
Filename| commends
a.doc| technical; wireless; document
b.doc| wireless; document; technical
c.doc | wireless; document
d.doc| wireless; sheet; technical
If this plugin can search commends(they are saved in the file descript.ion), when I type “wireless”, and these 4 files are in list. And when I type “sheet”, there is only d.doc in list, that it, the other 3 files would not appear. Furthermore, when I begin to type letters, it can suggest me the possible tag by searching the letters I just typed in the exist tags of the files.

If this function can be turned true, I will be able to manage files with tags, just as Web2.0 do.

Here is the thread of my question: http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=164123#164123

Hi all!

The author of QS+ didn't post since Nov2007. So, for all people interested by this wonderful add-on of the quick search function in TC, I've made some modifications from the source of the last version.

1 : QS+ is now fully compatible with TC75 and with multi-monitor PC
2 : QS+'s window was slightly moved so we can now see the total size of the filtered files (except when TC is maximized)

TCQSP.EXE can be downloaded here

or just use TC 7.5 directly without AQS...

[fg_2002fr]

No Lefteous, I doesn't agree because the QS function in TC75 wasn't so powerful. with QS+ you can filter files with letters in any place of the name not just from beginning or ending

hm, maybe you have overlooked sth. Also in TC versions prior to 7.5, you can enter e.g. '*em' to search for directories like 'temp', 'contemporary stuff', etc.

In addition, you can adjust the options of TC's Quicksearch in 'options' > 'Quick Search' > 'Exact name match' to fit to your needs.

[fg_2002fr]

You're right, I'm thinking that we need "beginning" or "ending" option checked, I didn't try to deselect all.

thanks for the tips

Hello Everyone,

I was in the mood for a little programming recently, and I came up with a nice way to add some extra functionality to TC.

I called it 'Quick Search Plus' and you can find it here:
http://www.geocities.com/jacokwak/TCQSP.html

It shrinks the filelist while typeing, eliminating the need for extra keystrokes to search for the right file.

Please note: Enter quits the program, but leaves the filelist in the filtered state until the program is started again.

Any comments are welcome.

I am not able to download your plugin the site is no longer there.
