Custom columns: split comments (descript.ion) into single lines

[Stiltzkin]

is there a way to setup custom columns so that each column has one line of the descript.ion comment (split by \n)?.

[=tc.comment] only gets the full comment from descript.ion which in my case often includes an url, which doesn't play nice with windows filename.

in this case:
descript.ion for setup.zip:

Code: Select all

Total Commander Installer\nInstalls Total Commander\nÂ

column 1 would be: Total Commander Installer
column 2 would be: Installs Total Commander
column 3would be: hxxps://example.com

maybe?
[=tc.comment.split(\n)[0]], [=tc.comment.split(\n)[1]

...it would also make renaming a lot easier

This is already possible, but only for fixed field lenght, so "Field1" must have same lenght for ALL files, "Field2" too, etc.
("Field1", "Field2", "Field3" may be differ in length)
Then you can use e.g. [=tc.comment:1-99] for "Field1" [=tc.comment:101-149] for "Field2" and so on.

There is the "expander2"-plugin by 2Progman13 which can do such things, but works only on file name, me think.

Maybe 2MVV or some other (2tbeu?) is willing to expand that plugin to work on any info or column, if possible?

To me wdx plugin only receive fine name to work with.
Splitting or Regexp could great operators to add directly in TC for any field you can add a suggestion
ie: :s\n:1 --> split using "\n" as separator and send string 1

that would be great of course.

and that would be even better!
