That's the problem. Remove the file and the problem should be solved.

Thanks. Fixed

Either remove it or copy totalcmd.chm to Language\wcmd_eng.chm and also copy totalcmdDark.chm to Language\Wcmd_engDark.chm

But it is definitely easier to delete Language\wcmd_eng.chm - then you don't have to remember to update it every time there is a new totalcmd.chm

In the first post, it's worth noting that "externt CSS script" means color customization.
I still don't understand why you didn't want simplified formatting. Semicolons and text-decoration could be eliminated.
In any case, thank you for publishing an optional solution.

Semicolons and text-decoration could be eliminated.

I have to change the .s and.p entries for each new version (the numbers are not always the same) - so having to remove the semicolons is extra work.
In case the user wants to change the text-decoration for the a: entries, it is easier when they are prefilled.

Feel free to retain your own version of the .css file.

Hmm, I didn't know.

so having to remove the semicolons is extra work.

It's not a problem. Replace_TotalcmdDark.css.js:

Code: Select all

file = 'TotalcmdDark.css'
with (WSH.CreateObject('Scripting.FileSystemObject')) {
   text = openTextFile(file).readAll().replace(/\;[^\s\}]* ?/g,' ')
   with(openTextFile(file,2)){write(text);close()}
}

And so it will be with the aligned design:

Code: Select all

var file = 'TotalcmdDark.css'

with (WSH.createObject('Scripting.FileSystemObject')) {
   with (openTextFile(file)) {
      f1 = readLine().replace(/(\S)\}/, '$1 }')
      f2 = openTextFile(file).readAll().replace(/\;[^\s\}]* ?/g,' ').replace(/(\S)\}/g, '$1 }')
   }
   with (openTextFile(file, 2)) {
      write(f1 + mass(/a\:[^\r\n]+/g) + mass(/\.[sp][^\r\n]+/g))
      close()
   }
}

function mass(filt) {
   var arr, n, s, i, max=0, text=''
   arr = f2.match(filt)
   for (n = 0; n < arr.length; ++n) {
      i = arr[n].indexOf('{'); if (i > max) max = i
   }
   for (n = 0; n < arr.length; ++n) {
      s = arr[n]; i = s.indexOf('{')
      if(i < max) s = s.replace("{", Array(max + 1 - i).join(' ') + '{')
      text = text + '\r\n' + s
   }
   return text
}

Feel free to retain your own version of the .css file.

You must understand that I'm not trying for myself.
