Add commands to activate last tab and to move current tab

[petermad]

Yes, well, one needs to add the commands to totalcmd.inc oneself.

Or use 5011..5099 in stead of cm_SrcActivateTab11..99 - it will work everywhere but the command line.

Thanks Hacker and Pertermad, I didn't know I could do that.

Sorry to rekindle a dormant topic, but I'm wondering if a small change might be possible...

Rather than creating a whole new command for SrcActivateTabLast (or whatever you'd call it), would it be possible to just allow SrcActivateTab99 to activate tab 99 if there are >=99 tabs, or the rightmost tab if there are <99 tabs? Right now it activates tab 99 if one exists, or fails if one does not exist.

It seems like a small change, and maybe few enough people use 99 tabs and are relying on this 99-or-fail functionality that it wouldn't harm many existing users to make this change? It would sure help me to be able to bind a keystroke to activating the rightmost tab.

Thanks so much, Mr. Ghisler. By the way, I've been using the 9.0 beta and I continue to be amazed at how you keep finding ways to make this software even better. It's my favorite software package of all time!

Mr. Ghisler, please add a commands to activate the last tab, such as "cm_SrcActivateTabLast", "cm_TrgActivateTabLast", "cm_LeftActivateTabLast", "cm_RightActivateTabLast".

You could use
cm_SrcActivateTab1,cm_SwitchToPreviousTab

I know about this solution. Вut it's a little different.
For example, a time lag is possible if a slow network resource is open in the first tab.

slow network resource

TC can also be frozen on simple folders due to wdx columns or highlighting.

Mr. Ghisler, since a new version is being developed, please add commands such as "cm_SrcActivateTabLast", "cm_TrgActivateTabLast", "cm_LeftActivateTabLast", "cm_RightActivateTabLast" in one of the beta versions. Really very necessary.

[ghisler(Author)]

You can use this:
cm_SrcActivateTab1,cm_SwitchToPreviousTab

[AlexandrT]

You can use this:
cm_SrcActivateTab1,cm_SwitchToPreviousTab

As I wrote above, this is not the same thing...

According to the wiki page, to move current tabs left or right, there are now these two commands:

Code: Select all

cm_MoveTabLeft

and

Code: Select all

cm_MoveTabRight

PS: I'm posting here because I'm directed here by this round of chat with GPT-4o, and was told that these two commands weren't implemented.

AIs often make mistakes, and this is not surprising.
