Hello All,
I was wondering if there is (maybe ini file?) setting that can make the root button (\) act like it used to do, which was when button pressed, the user would be taken back to root folder, and cursor would be placed at top of folder list. As of latest release, button takes user to root folder, but stays on folder name. Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: Root (backslash) button
You can click breadcrumb with drive letter or add a button to toolbar for obvious command
However, I think it's time to add Ctrl+Home as a separate shortcut for this action. Now Ctrl+Home duplicates Home key action.
Code: Select all
cd \

Re: Root (backslash) button
Until it is made optional by tyhe author to go to first entry when going to root, you can use this button in stead:
If you also want the Ctrl+\ keyboard shortcut to do the same, you first have to put this command in your usercmd.ini file:
and then put this entry in the [Shortcuts] section of your wincmd.ini file:
Or if you prefer Ctrl+Home as a shortcut as suggested by Usher, you can use this in your [Shortcuts] section:
Code: Select all
TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cm_GoToRoot,cm_GoToFirstEntry
wcmicons.dll,15
Go to root
-1
To make the button:
1. Mark the green text above (click SELECT ALL).
2. Copy it to the ClipBoard (press Ctri+C).
3. Right click on TC's buttonbar and choose "Paste".
If you also want the Ctrl+\ keyboard shortcut to do the same, you first have to put this command in your usercmd.ini file:
Code: Select all
[em_gotoroot]
cmd=cm_GoToRoot,cm_GoToFirstEntry
Code: Select all
C+OEM_<\>=em_gotoroot
Or if you prefer Ctrl+Home as a shortcut as suggested by Usher, you can use this in your [Shortcuts] section:
Code: Select all
C+HOME=em_gotoroot

If you prefer association with Home, replace line wcmicons.dll,15 withpetermad wrote: ↑2019-08-23, 10:33 UTC Until it is made optional by tyhe author to go to first entry when going to root, you can use this button instead:Code: Select all
