Dirs history: show dirs TC can't access in background tabs

Post by *DrShark »

On try to activate a background tab which has a path TC can't access wile IgnoreDirErrors=0, TC switches away to some accessible path. In directory history, there is no record for a path TC tried to access but failed, which is a problem if there you have some important deep path e.g. from removable drive: it's lost on accidental tab activation.

In email discussion, we couldn't find a compatible solution (one that doesn't change a history format).
It seems, a described behavior for flash drives:

is perfet to solve this. TC can briefly show <Read error!> (trying to access it as in IgnoreDirErrors=1 mode) which will make a history record for this dir, and then switch away to accessible path.
