Accelerator key not displayed for Pack Files (context menu)

For some reason, the accelerator key P is not displayed for the Pack files entry in the archive files context menu, although pressing P brings up the dialog. See the attached screenshot.

It has always been like that. I guess it is because other Shell Extensions might also use P as an acellerator key, although you could argue the same about "View (lister)" which does have a visible accelerator key.

"Pack files" and "View (lister)" together with "X64" or "X32" are the only items in the context menu placed there by TC - the rest are placed by Windows or Shell Extensions.

If you want the visible accelerator key, you kan make your own WCMD_ENG.LNG file (ASCII) with this content:

Code: Select all

English
1734="&Pack files"

and then pick "English (WCMD_ENG.LNG) in the Language setup.

If you are already using an external language file, then just edit line 1734.

The reason why P works as an accellerator key is that in most Windiows menus the first letter of an item works as an accellerator key. If there are two or more items with the same starting letter or an accelerator key set by the program, then pressing the letter will jump between the items.

There are currently around 90 occurencies of strings that do support an accellerator key in TC, but doesn't have one - string 1734 is one of them.
