User defined "button" command: Select files (n00b)
Posted: 2015-10-18, 02:16 UTC
Hello
How do I construct a user defined "button" command that selects two named files? I have tried a little but I am not allowed to post a screen shot here yet, since I am a new member.
I use Total Commander for Android.
I construct the user defined command by choosing internal command "select" (internal command #110) and input the file names preceded by file:%P as parameters:
file:%Ptmp1.txt
file:%Ptmp2.txt
and variations of this, but I don't get it right.
When I tap the user button command I made, the selection dialogue opens but does not continue. If I continue it manually all files are selected.
I may be mistaken how parameters are used. I can make a few other simple button commands work, though.
But basically I have not really grasped how I should build these "macros" and add more commands to follow the first. What I wish to do with the selected files is to continue with a search within the files, like grep. The search speed of TC is incredible!
Sorry for beginner's question.
Thanks
