Selecting files with same name or name+ext

[sa16]

I just forgot it.

Thank you for remembering!

This is not suitable for names with multiple dots. It should be done by analogy with the following example for the current item:

A dot in regular expressions is a meta-character and is used to search for an arbitrary character,
as a result, an error occurs, the command for the cursor on name1.1.txt mark name1_1.txt, name1x1.txt, etc.
There are also problems with other (^() [] {} $ + ) meta-characters in names...

A dot in regular expressions is a meta-character and is used to search for an arbitrary character,

that is why the dot is escaped with a \ in Fla$her's regexp: <^%O\.?[^.]*$

[Fla$her]

as a result, an error occurs

Yes, it's necessary to escape metacharacters inside %O, which I usually do in scripts at the expense of another regexp. You can't do this in a regular button.
It's possible to use a chain of two em_ commands. The first one will have "sed ...|clip", and the second one will have my button analog, but instead of %O it will be %|CLIPNAME1|. But given my code for Autorun, I guess this idea doesn't make much sense anymore.

This is the dot before the extension, and other dots may be in the most base name (%O): "name1.1".

[petermad]

and other dots may be in the most base name (%O):

You are right name1.name2.ext will erroneously match for example name1,name2.ext

The more characters you allow in the extension, the bigger risk of false markings.

This option, in my opinion, is better:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
SELECTFILESS
"%S:~-0,255.*." "%S:~-0,255"
wcmicons.dll,39
Select all items with same base name as selected items|Hold Shift to also select folders

But the problem with DEFAULT.BAR.bak --> DEFAULT.BAR remains.

Much better

Hmm, If i mark/select for example the first 5 files in any of the panels, and then use the second button here above - then the corresponding files are selected in the opposite panel.

You have to mark the files to indicate which ones you want a match for - if you only click the button, only the file under the cursor will be matched.

Marked the first 5 file and the buttons dont work, no matches found. Changed to other panel but no luck.

What version of the program do you have? Need TC 10.00 and fresher.

9.0a :/

But the problem with DEFAULT.BAR.bak --> DEFAULT.BAR remains.

As if the problem is solved by a chain of em_commands:

Code: Select all

[em_SelS_1]
cmd=SELECTFILESS
param=""%S:~-0,255.*.""
[em_SelS_2]
cmd=SELECTFILESS
param=""%S:~-0,255" | "*.*.*""

or, likewise, with the TCFS2 button:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Utils\TCFS2\TCFS2.exe /ef
"set_ini(`%%COMMANDER_PATH%%\usercmd.ini`,em_TempParam,cmd,`SELECTFILESS`) set_ini(`%%COMMANDER_PATH%%\usercmd.ini`,em_TempParam,param,`""%%S:~-0,255.*.""`) tem(`em_TempParam`) delay(100) if(findwnd(`#32770`), send(`{ENTER}`, findwnd(`#32770`))) set_ini(`%%COMMANDER_PATH%%\usercmd.ini`,em_TempParam,cmd,`SELECTFILESS`) set_ini(`%%COMMANDER_PATH%%\usercmd.ini`,em_TempParam,param,`""%%S:~-0,255" | "*.*.*""`) tem(`em_TempParam`) delay(100) if(findwnd(`#32770`), send(`{ENTER}`, findwnd(`#32770`)))"
wcmicons.dll,39

cmd=SELECTFILESS
param=""%S:~-0,255.*.""
[em_SelS_2]

That solution selects the correct files if i place the cursor on DEFAULT.BAR.bak but gives me the message: "No matches found!"


This solution:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
SELECTFILESS
"%S:~-0,255.*." | "%S:~-0,255"
wcmicons.dll,39
Select all items with same base name as selected items|Hold Shift to also select folders

seems to work universally, but can not select files with the same name but NO extension.

That solution give selects the correct files if i place the cursor on DEFAULT.BAR.bak but gives me the message: "No matches found!"

It is better to have the correct result with an error message than the wrong one without a message.
This is due to the need to use two commands SELECTFILES. In the TCFS2 button, I automatically suppress this message.

It would be convenient to add the suffix 0 in the SELECTFILES command to suppress error messages (similar to LOADLIST and LOADLIST0).
When select files from the buffer (cm_LoadSelectionFromClip) or file (LOADSELECTION), TC does not report errors at all.
