Here you go.
See first post.

Someone also put it there, but its an outdated version.
I wounder how to put it on Totalcmd.NET. There seems to be no signup button. Is there a official or semiofficial place to put plugins?

fenix_productions, cheming,
Flint? Petermad? What do they have to do with the site? Why not contact the site admin - Ergo?

I asked Flint (Konstantin) and he gave me a login.

I had tried many times in the past to contact with Ergo and never got any kind of reply (neither via ICQ nor email) but I received suggestion from someone (Alexey?) once to ask Flint about and it worked immediately.

For some reason Ergo does not manage the site for several years, in fact, the site is now administered by the Flint. Therefore, for accounts you need to ask him. Here on this in Russian.

Rodny,
Strange. Thank you.

Samuel, thank you so much for adding support for PinYin. You must made many Chinese TC users so happy. Great work. Thank you!

Updated first post: Version 1.3 is available.

Code: Select all

Version 1.3
 - Changed: Renamed "separator_char" to "and_separator_char" in ini.
 - Added: "or_separator_char" to search either one substring or the other one
 - Added: ability to create and use presets
 - Added: ini option "filter_files_and_folders" to only filter files or only filter folders (doesn’t work in zip files)
 - Added: Autodetect system language on first run to set PinYin ini option to "use_pinyin=1" for Chinese
 - Did not fix PinYin support again :-D

Regarding wdx support:
I tried a lot on wdx support. (see commented source code.) There are many problems. Although there are many optional functions, I cant get some plugins ("ShellDetails") to work with only the two functions: "ContentGetSupportedField" and "ContentGetValue". Also I figured out that there are many ways to store a string: "ft_string", "ft_stringw", "ft_multiplechoice" "ft_fulltext", (the same with the many number formats - I will not think of Units and the different date and time formats, etc) So its very hard to include wdx support.

I would be glad if there would be a class which just expects: "wdx_plugin_with_path", "Fieldname" to initialize and later would only produce the expected data as string for any "File_with_path".

Edit: I also dont know if its really needed.

Does DLL suit your needs?

If yes: http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=21710

Search for "wdx_proxy" or contact with franck8244. He wrote small DLL which can help you. You just need to pass the names (plugin, field and specific file) to get proper value string from it. I've found it very easy to use in my Comparer application.

I am not sure about Unicode support but it is good for beginning.

[Samuel]

Sounds good. I will look into it later the day.

I am afraid it will be slow but we'll see.

I still think that TC should just pass columns content in one parameter. Maybe simple string with "\n" as separator (since new lines don't work in columns). That would be the easiest way IMHO.

It could look like:

Code: Select all

BOOL __stdcall MatchFileW(WCHAR* QSFilter,WCHAR* Filename, WCHAR* Filecontent)

where you could get as Filecontent something similar to:

Code: Select all

3.1 M

Of course, tcmatch.dll should treat new line as new column mark (as I wrote above).

I still think that TC should just pass columns content in one parameter.

Unfortunately only standard columns (size, date/time, attributes) are available at quick search time. Custom fields are only loaded when shown, otherwise it would be much too slow...

[Samuel]

Its mainly about the shown columns. (it is much faster to extract them once.)
Especially in user defined columns this would be nice.
