HISTORY.TXT wrote:07.06.06 Added: wincmd.ini [Configuration] AppendLnk=1 -> TC creates lnk file names in the form file.ext.lnk instead of file.lnk (Ctrl+Shift+F5)

Is it possible to have this feature in the packer-dialog, too?

Actually with Alt-F5 on a single file I get:

Code: Select all

zip:file.ZIP

Instead I'd like to get:

Code: Select all

zip:file.EXT.ZIP

With GZ this is already implemented:

Code: Select all

gz:file.EXT.GZ

Is there a way to have this behaviour with the other packers, too?

I would also welcome that feature when file name extensions were appended generally (as with AppendLnk=1) instead of replaced to prevent loss of information. So the option AppendLnk might be renamed to AppendFileNameExtension.

I now wrote an AHK workaround for this, auto-suggesting a context sensitive name:
wiki: AppendLnk option for packing (plus: Automatically assign name for archive).

Code: Select all

; // Resulting archive name:
; //   - if only 1 file selected -------------------- :  zip:filename.ext.zip (*.*.zip)
; //   - if multiple files /      same name  selected :  zip:filename.zip     (  *.zip)
; //   - if multiple files / different names selected :  zip:dirname.zip (as suggested by TC)

It would be much more convenient to have this natively in TC, of course.

FYI: Updated to version 1.03 in the meantime (faster and more reliable)...

Updated to work with TC 7.50 (rc1) now (changed control names).
