Shared INI and Dir Hotlist

Oops, I've posted debug version, it should be 3* and not 2* in a batch.

That still doesn't work. Although this works correctly for parameters with spaces, there's no 4th token if the parameter consists of one word only (like Desktop), so the result of the for-loop is empty.

Yes, you're right, space in parameter name is a trouble, and batch should count spaces in it.

Or a replacing bunches of spaces with unique delimiter - it is better than replacing exact type name with spaces (types may vary). Finally I've added another for:

Code: Select all

@echo off
if -%1==- echo User Shell Folders value name should be passed. & pause & goto :EOF
set $PATH=
for /f "usebackq delims=" %%p in (`reg.exe query "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders" /v "%~1" ^| find /i "%~1"`) do set "$PATH=%%p"
for /f "tokens=4 delims=*" %%p in ("$PATH=%$PATH:    =*%") do set "$PATH=%%p"
%COMMANDER_EXE% /O /S /L="%$PATH%"

First one only extracts entire value descriptor to a variable and then second one extracts path from it after replacing every 4-space delimiter with *.

It isn't required to double ampersands, one if enough to chain commands.
