%$DATE% only resolved in command field

[Stefan2]

Ok, now I can use it
Here my button to pack all selected files/dirs from the source to the target side.
The archive is named like the source dir followed by the current date time.
Example Dirname_20230518_1845

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe"
a %T%B_%|$DATE:YMD_hm| @%UL -aoa -mmt -mx9 -ssw -stl -ssp -y -mx9
C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7zFM.exe
Pack selected

Thanks 2ghisler(Author)


References:


TC v11.00 beta 3
17.05.23 Added: New pseudo environment variable %$DATE% inserts current date and time in the form YYYYMMDDhhmmss,
or use placeholders from multi-rename, e.g. %$DATE:YMDhHmsi% (32/64)

TC v11.00 beta 1
26.04.23 Added: Command line parameters (button bar, start menu):
New parameter %|envvar| inserts environment variable envvar, e.g. %|windir| or %|$DESKTOP| in the parameter field (32/64)
The parameters field does not support environment variables normally because it supports paramters like %P%N.
This would collide with a variable name %P%.
Therefore the syntax is different there:
%|Variable name|
%|$DATE:Y-M-D h.m.s|

10.06.21 TC v10.00
New placeholder %B for part of path (including branch view paths): %B or %B0 parent, %B1 grandparent etc. ......
New placeholder %Bt, %Bt1 etc: Parent, grandparent directory of target folder
New placeholder %B+ for part of path (including branch view paths), .....



Great enhancements

Why did you use the "-stl" switch?

-stl : set archive timestamp from the most recently modified file
