[Fixed] cm_DirBranch screws-up external commands

[arko]

When cm_DirBranch mode is turned on, buttons that use %p%n do not work as correct paths aren't being supplied to an external command.

It is possible to pass the selected file paths as usual?

Why do you need paths with short DOS (8.3) names? Use the upper case of the parameters. DOS (8.3) is not used for non-console programs.

Try %P%N instead of %p%n - %p%n gives you the short 8.3 file name as pointed out by Fla$her - and on newer computers support for short file names are often not enabled for drives other than C: by default

Indeed, thanks!
