Hi Christian,
my Q is about using %USERNAME% variable in AlternateUserIni and RedirectSection settings, e.g.
AlternateUserIni=wincmd_%USERNAME%.ini
RedirectSection=wincmd_%USERNAME%_history.ini
Now or in next v.
Example:
C:\totalcmd\
wincmd.ini (all shared settings)
wincmd_user1.ini (users specified settings)
wincmd_user1_history.ini (users history)
wincmd_user2.ini
wincmd_user2_history.ini
wincmd_user3.ini
wincmd_user3_history.ini
EDIT: Ofc %USERNAME%, thanks MVV

I think you need variable USERNAME instead of USERPROFILE because the second one contains full path to profile folder so you get buggy string like
wincmd_C:\Documents and Settings\User.ini.

Both of these work for me:
Code: Select all
[Lister]
RedirectSection=wincmd_%USERNAME%_Lister.ini
Code: Select all
[Lister]
RedirectSection=wincmd_%$USERNAME%_Lister.ini
And it is read properly when fed an alternate user-ini from the command-line parameter.
Code: Select all
@ECHO OFF

SET TCmd=%TC%\TotalCMD.exe

Though, I would think it would be much cleaner to keep user-specific settings in the documents & settings folders. Rather than all in one dir with files named by User.
Which is where I have those files, they are just accessible via a junction in TC's program folder.

Yes this is OK, my mistake (USERNAME/USERPROFILE). Thanks
