Extended CD command

[igarny]

2Fla$her 2petermad Thanks for the hints!

I am using the 64bit version of this plugin:

New secure ftp plugin version 3.04 final (32 bit+64 bit)

I have figured it out ... feeling so stupid for not having it in the first place
Anyway based on some input from 2Fla$her in another post I came up with this:

Code: Select all

TCFS2.exe /ef tcm(4003) send(`cd \var\log{ENTER}`)

which can be assigned to a command / button and will switch to the respective folder without me having to specify the current plugin and server..

I find it a miss for not having a conformity between the different cd command initiations, like from menu command and TC command line control

[Sir_SiLvA]

and why do you need tcfs2 when that works with cd var\log just fine?

I don't see the answer to the question about the server. I asked it for a reason.

Support !

I would be glad to learn from you on how to make this a button / menu command...
please note it should be:

Code: Select all

cd \var\log

NOT

cd var\log

[Sir_SiLvA]

Code: Select all

cd \var\log

folder strukture:

cd \[foldername] dos NOT work only cd [foldername] does....
if you start with a \ you have to give the complete path!

example:
you are in folder d:\downloads and want to change to d:\downloads\some\files you have to use cd some\files
you are in folder d:\downloads and want to change to d:\work\recent you have to use cd \work\recent
\ after cd means you start from drive root.

Please check this post: viewtopic.php?t=77829&start=15#p431185

example:
you are in folder d:\downloads and want to change to d:\downloads\some\files you have to use cd some\files
you are in folder d:\downloads and want to change to d:\work\recent you have to use cd \work\recent
\ after cd means you start from drive root.

definitely your examples do not match my use case: viewtopic.php?t=77829#p431162

A small but nice part from the requested list:

20.08.24 Added: Change directory via "cd" command: Append \: to go to the parent and place cursor on directory or archive, e.g. cd c:\windows\system32\: (32/64)

And with archives it worked before.

It was a coincidence that it already worked with archives - TC would try to open
c:\path\archive.zip\:
as a directory and fail. Then it would try opening
c:\path\archive.zip
as a directory (not archive!) and fail too. Then finally it would try opening
c:\path
and succeed. Now this has been implemented to directly go to c:\path instead
and set cursor on the archive.zip file.

[Fla$her]

Yes, I understood that it worked because of a fail, but it worked nonetheless. Thanks for the folder anyway!
I hope you will still mature to the rest of the wishes from the list.

Does not work with relative paths, e.g. cd Language\:. Is that how it should be?

[ghisler(Author)]

No, it only works with absolute paths.

It would be useful to reflect in the Help new features of the cd command:

Append \: to go to the parent and place cursor on directory or archive, e.g. cd c:\windows\system32\: (32/64)

and existing limitations:

only works with absolute paths

Hey guys

I would like to again support the proposal of *Fla$her in this topic.

I am not sure how this would work, but I imagine the solution as an upgrade or a step further of the implementation currently applied for the cm_CompareFilesByContent command

there just needs to be a way to replicate the same solution but for a given by a variable path string and instead of opening it to be able to just pin it in the destination panel.

I suppose there is a challenge... after all the list of objects in the panel is provided by a third party... the plugin, which is difficult to control
so my hope is that TC can traverse the path as it does with the internal command and then get a list and not just the content of the file for the comparison.
