searching by file comments

[bad_worm]

Is it possible to search files only by its comments(added with CTRL+Z function) in Total Commander 5.51?

You can search for all comment files only (descript.ion) and the comment text.

After you found the resulting descript.ion file you can view it or change directly to the destination folder.

This may intrest you: http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=1274&start=15
Christian said some time ago that he'll implement it, but I don't no if there is any progress

You should open the Find Files Dialog (Alt+F7)
Under "Search for:" should be as is:

descript.ion files.bbs

Check the Checkbox "Find Text" and write what you want to find for.
You can also check "Search Archives" or select (i.e with Insert Key) in what location(dirs) perform the search.

Hmm, I think that isn't what bad_worm (and me too needs:

We need a filter for files in a TC-Panel like eg. extension, but depending on the content of it's description.

Furthermore, the possibility to sort according descriptions woul be very, very nice!
