It means that you are checking wrong.
If you select name1.ext, name1.name2.ext and name1.name2.name3.ext will also be marked, which is an error.
on the other hand does not work as expected
Untruth. It works exactly as indicated in my description and button hint. >>>

Correct - I hadn't thought of that scenario.

I know that your solution is only described as working for the filename under the cursor - I even wrote that - by expected I mean as expected when trying to solve the task in mSnus 's first post. I should probably have writen: "as requested" to make it more clear.

I don't think it can be solved for multiple selected files without using %S, and AFAIK regular expressions can only be used in the start of the parameters.

Maybe with TCFS2 ?

If you had taken into account what I have underlined, then it would not make sense to write all this.

No, only scripts.

You have proven that my solution has flaws, but it solved the the problem as it was exemplified in the first post - yours doesn't - but maybe you didn't read the first post?

If you had taken the request as described in the first post into account, the last 3 posts could have been avoided.

What does this have to do with what is underlined in my sentence? Did I refer to the outdated first post in mine and provide some kind of solution to it? I quoted the answer to sniper0's question, which was not tied to the first post in any way.

Wrong. It's enough just to read my original sentence carefully to clearly understand what applies to what.

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.

I suppose everything is clear from the command names.

If the extensions are more or less standard (for example, no more than 4 characters), and the names can be with multiple dots:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
SELECTFILESS
"%S:~-0,255" "%S:~-0,255.?" "%S:~-0,255.??" "%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
P.S. But the problem remains if there are more points in the sample than in another selected file:
DEFAULT.BAR.bak will also select DEFAULT.BAR

I tried that too, but it will falsely mark for example name1.12.3 or name1.1.23 if the file name1.txt is marked - but it is better
The more characters you allow in the extension, the bigger risk of false markings.

Please check! In my opinion, the line start character (^) is missing in the regular expression:
