How do I select from the selection?

[Opt00r]

Let's say I compare two directories. I end up with bunch of archive files, and with pictures and html. Now If I want to de-select the pictures and html and other non-archive files, how do I go about doing that?

[Num-] and as mask '*.htm *.jpg *.txt'

or

1. Show->only selected files
2. [alt*]
3. Put cursor on one desired file (e.g. sample.rar)
4. [Alt]+ [num+] to select all files with the same extension
5. repeat with next extension at item 3

Wow, never knew about that [alt]+ [num+] combo. Thanks a bunch!

If you read regularly this forum you will be astonished what a source of knowledge it is

I hope you haven't turned scarlet as much as your new monk avatar, looks like he has had way too much Ouzo the last weeks.

Hi Jeff !
- If that continues, we are getting a true monastery here
-In anyway, I like that new Panos' avatar (and ouzo with moderation, of course,
don't forget do drink the fresh water too ! )

The Ouzo drinking amounts are getting higher and higher every day lately apart from some beer breaks for the Olympic Games!

BTW, that avatar (which pretty much looks exactly like me excluding the boldness) is sourced from the new ChessMaster 10th Edition. I love it! (both Chessmaster and the avatar).
