Do you really consider the left and right path parameters? It would be great.
I think its the only "big" thing left for non modal use of sync-dir.
Just yesterday I synced with it and realized just in time that the sides were swapped. I think its also some kind of security risk.
For the rest I cant figure out any difference. (I use the "only selected in main window" very rarely.) I really like the new standalone version.

When trying to access: "\\\Secure FTP\..."
I got:
Code: Select all
---------------------------
Total Commander
---------------------------
Access violation at address 0044552A. Read of address 000000C0.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
And the window hangs. I can reproduce it.
And I just saw it doesn't work with archives.

I can confirm the problem, thanks!

What about the other two things:
1) parameters for left & right folder
2) syncronizing *.zip files
Do you consider it for TC 7.5 final?

I cannot say yet. It's on my wish list, but I cannot promise anything yet because there are too many other things to do which are more important...

One other thing differs from standalone tool to intern tool:
If I press F3 on a jpg file (open file in Lister) it cannot be shown as multimedia. (connection to Irfanview is missing)
Bmp is handled internally (or from windows) and makes no problems here.
I dont use lister plugins so I cannot say if they work.

Does /I=%COMMANDER_INI% help?

No. AFAIK TC automatic loads the current ini in /s mode.
I just tried the external lister tool. There it works. -> jpg is shown correct.

No unless Ghisler changed something in PB 5/6

I just tested it. TC automatically uses the "wincmd.ini" for standalone.
For example: "DrivesShowUpcase=1/0" is loaded from "wincmd.ini" only with this commandline:
Code: Select all
C:\Programme\totalcmd\TOTALCMD.EXE /S=S "%P" "%T"

The new TC instance performs standard algorithm of searching for wincmd.ini, therefore it finds the same wincmd.ini as doubleclicking totalcmd.exe.
If you start TC with /I= switch, you need to pass /I to the external tool explicitly as TC won't do it by yourself.
Anyway, as it doesn't help, it's not related with the problem that you found, I have no other ideas.

Did you noticed the bug report above?
F3 does not work on "jpg" or "png" in standalone sync tool. It just behaves as if the IrfanView path is wrong.

You are right - it works with plugins though.

No I didn't, sorry! In the future, please report such bugs in the bug forum. You don't need to report this one again, I could reproduce and fix it now. The problem was that the image was sent (via WM_COPYDATA) to the sync tool, which just ignored it. Standalone Lister can handle it, and Lister launched from TC too, but not Lister launched from the sync tool.

Normally I do that, but earlier in this thread you said:
ghisler(Author) wrote:Please let me know if you find other problems with standalone sync.
So I gathered everything related to standalone sync here in this thread.
Behavior differences for standalone sync left so far:
1) There is no possibility to run it with left and right path parameters (IMO critical: could lead to data loss)
2) There is no possibility to sync with zip files (currently there is a notification that its not supported)
3) There is no possibility to sync with ftp server (no notification displayed - strange behavior if you try this)
4) There is no possibility to use "only selected in main window" (if you do not load a saved sync)
5) sometimes I still get this
empty titlebar (But I cant reproduce it for sure)
I would be glad if (1) and (2) would be implemented.

Great to hear that.
