Nice!

This has been added TC 9.10 beta 2, please test it!

There are multiple variations:
<[%temp%] -> c:\path\temp
<[%temp%\] -> temp
<[%temp%_] -> c_path_temp

<[%TEMP%1-8] -> C:\Users (! - nice touch).

Yes, it seems to work fine (in F7 at least). Nicely done.

Maybe this option should be mentioned in the help file.

BTW - there is a visual glitch in the help file for this function - see http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/helperror.png

Hmmm. Seems to be OK. The text which (i think) you're referring to, seems to be wrapped.

Wrapped text should be in the second column.

Ah, OK, now i get it. It will be interesting to hear from Christian if this can be done.

P.S. Maybe a separate bug post should be created for this.

Of course it can. There are many pages where this is implemented. See "Configuration - Change button bar", for example.

OK then, to be more clear and visible, i created here a new bug with petermad's info.

What do you mean? It's mentioned both in the help for the multi-rename tool and for F7 and Shift+F4.

About the line break, I can fix that, no problem.

I dont see this in the Help for Shift+F4 and F7:

There are multiple variations:
<[%temp%] -> c:\path\temp
<[%temp%\] -> temp
<[%temp%_] -> c_path_temp

But maybe it is obvious enough once you use it - and it is in the help for the multi-rename tool, so I guess that's enough...

They are in the help for the multi-rename tool, they aren't specific to F7 or Shift+F4:

[%x%] Insert value of environment variable "x". Also supports ranges like [%x%1-5]
[%x%\] Same as [%x%], but only the last part of a path (e.g. c:\temp -> temp)
[%x%_] Same as [%x%], but replace all backslashes in paths by the provided character (here: "_") and remove the ":"
