go to file with different extension

but it doesnt work always

You are right - it only seems to work correctly when the panel is sorted by extension, and if the cursor is placed on the first file with a given extension.

You can try this instead:

Code: Select all

[em_goto_next_ext]
cmd=cm_ClearAll,cm_SelectCurrentExtension,cm_GoToLast,cm_GoToPrevSelected,cm_GoToNext,cm_ClearAll

[em_goto_previous_ext]
cmd=cm_ClearAll,cm_SelectCurrentExtension,cm_GoToFirstFile,cm_GoToNextSelected,cm_GoToPrev,cm_ClearAll

It still only works OK when sorted by extension, and any selections (marking of files) will be not be preserved.

try Fla$her's command, it works very well in both cases (sorted or not by extension) although it cancels eventual selection too. Your solution doesnt work when unsorted.

527,525,3305,2053,524 — navigate to the file with the next extension
527,525,3305,2054,524 — navigate to the file with the previous extension

It's not as clean and elegant, but it might suit you.

In my opinion, this solution from Flint (CaptainFlint), proposed 16 years ago, remains very elegant.

The solution is writing code, not someone else's chatter. The current solution has 3305. So not "this".
And even in this form it cannot be elegant for a number of well-known reasons. Actually, that's why I used it quite rarely.
But a solution with Autorun is a different matter.
