Simpel Total Commander launcher

[Rex]

I know that there is a lot of utilitys just like this out, but all of them i have tryed uses some sort of settings file, mine don't.
Mine is a small (155.825 bytes) singel stand alone exe file.

You can use it to launch tcm from a usb stick / cd / dvd or other.

The usage of the the file is wery simpel to, just copy wincmd.ini - wcx_ftp.ini and the Launch TCM.exe file into the Totalcmd dir.
When you then executes the Launch TCM.exe til will run TotalCmd.exe with the /i and /f commands teling Totalcmd.exe that i scould use the ini files located in same dir.

Have you ever heard of this Wincmd.ini file setting?

Code: Select all

[Configuration]
UseIniInProgramDir=7

@Rex:
Besides the INI setting there already is a TC starter doing exactly the same including source code, and it is really small.

Wow thats a small launcher.
Did't know that it existed, but even that i would have made my own

My sorce is also free, i just forgot to uploade it
so here it is

Code: Select all

Run(@scriptdir & "\Totalcmd.exe /i=" & @scriptdir & "\Wincmd.ini /f=" & @ScriptDir & "\Wcx_ftp.ini")

I created the launcher with the nice freeware scripting tool AutoIT v3
found at http://www.autoitscript.com/

TC has an internal order where to look for wincmd.ini, homedirectory comes first. If the entry is contained in it the ini is used.

AutoIt is well known in the TC community although AutoHotkey is better suited for small tasks due to its better and more comfortable hotkey support.

You can find example scripts by using the forum search or in the new TC Wiki:

@Rex: a Start would be reading the helpfile
Press F1 inside TC -> 4.b -> wincmd.ini -> [Configuration] -> UseIniInProgramDir=

PS: where do I get the bigger Picture of your NickPic ?

I only read the helpfile, if i need to finde out somthing not becorce it there . No realy i havent had the need for reading help file, cource i did know what parameters i schould use for my TCM Launchere...

I did a search for dragonlance, longtime ago and there in some page on the web, i found the pic that i now has as NickPic.
I have put the org. in the same p0lace as my Launcher
