Version 1.5.1
- Important change: The name "Google like Quicksearch" changed to "QuickSearch eXtended".
- Clean up the first post, so that the user will more likely read the readme. ;-) (Full history is now only available in readme.)
- Change: Default value of "wdx_separator_char" is now "/" instead of "\". The backslash prevented to use the RegEx search.
- Fixed: Filtering files in FTP mode is possible again. (broken in Version 1.5)
- Disabled wdx and "filter_files_and_folders" for network drives, FTP and inside of zip files.
- Some readme cleanup and redesign.
In the readme I miss some information about how to uninstall easily. I just tried it out (and came to the conclusion that it is not suitable for me, because I need matching beginning) but didnt know how to uninstall it again after my test.
//edit: I found out that I just have to delete the three tcmatch-files when tc is not running.
1) just write an "^" in front of the search string.
To make it default:
2) In the "tcmatch.ini" set "match_beginning=1" (to use match beginning by default)
3) In the "tcmatch.ini" set "simple_search_activate_char=~" and "simple_search_match_beginning_activate_char=" (to use match beginning only in simple search by default)
To uninstall:
Just remove "tcmatch.*" from the directory where you installed it in. If there are problems to delete "tcmatch.dll" just restart TC and do not use QuickSearch before deleting the file. I will add an uninstall info in next version.
I am using it together with my own tags (within comments) and I can't simply believe how easy it got thanks to the wdx_groups=|1 hack. The only disadvantage I found was to write my own WDX for reading comments only but it was just a small issue.
Once again: thank you.

I know about FileDesc.wdx but this is still mystery to me how to configure its columns properly. I've wanted to have descript.ion comments only in one column and the rest elsewhere.
Of course, I could use it in separate directory and configure from there but sometimes the simplest solutions are the hardest to fins so I gave up and wrote my own WDX for this.

This does not work.
Actually, negate search won't work when match_beginning=1.
Its not a bug. The examples are written for the default values in "tcmatch.ini". The "!" before the search string just negates the result. All excluded files are included and vice versa.
If you search for ".pdf" (match_beginning=1) you will not find "cat.pdf", because it doesn't start with a ".". So "!.pdf" will find "cat.pdf".
You can search for: " .pdf" to find "cat.pdf" and "! .pdf" will not find "cat.pdf".
