Part A - Two Shortcuts
The suggestion is to make

Ctrl+Alt+F5 (Pack files to current directory)
Shift+Ctrl+Alt+F5 (Pack to current dir, del. original)

default shortcuts even without

Code: Select all

[Shortcuts] 
CA+F5=cm_PackFiles
CAS+F5=cm_PackFiles

inside the wincmd.ini.

Part B - (keyboard/tasten).txt (after Part A is done)
Add these following missing shortcuts:

ALT+X - Exit | Minimize (with option MinimizeOnClose, see help)

Alt+F6 <-> Alt+F9 are both including but ALT+SHIFT+F6 is missing, so ALT+SHIFT+F9 - Test archives for integrity
should be instead
ALT+SHIFT+F6 - Test archives for integrity (use Alt+SHIFT+F9 on Windows 95)
ALT+SHIFT+F9 - Same as ALT+SHIFT+F6 (because ALT+SHIFT+F6 is broken on Windows 95)

ALT+LeftClick - Shows the property Dialog of a file IF "open files & directories with a single click" is turned on
(to have this documented somewhere else then just some random forum post | or add it at least to the helpfile?)

ALT+SPACE - Show the system context menu of TC

The Shortcuts from Part A

Last but not least, in the english keyboard.txt file the width for the shortcuts is 24 characters but in the german tasten.txt file its only 14

which leads to explanations of shortcuts starting on the line AFTER the shortcut (see example below) can this please be fixed

Code: Select all

Key                    Action
ALT+SHIFT+F11          Focus the button bar to use it with the keyboard

Taste          Wirkung
ALT+UMSCH+F11
               Buttonbar fokussieren (zum Benutzen mit der Tastatur)

TIA and HTH

Part A - Two Shortcuts
I would offer differently: make separate commands for archiving in the current folder (without attaching to CTRL), for example:

Code: Select all

cm_PackFilesCurDir - pack files in current directory
cm_PackFilesCurDirDel - pack files in current directory and del original

Or make the parameters to the main command cm_PackFiles.
So that you can make a button with such a command without pressing CTRL and for use in conjunction of the other сommands.

Please make a new thread for your suggestion as this thread is about a 19 year old behaviour that should finally be made offically

Code: Select all

27.10.04 Release Total Commander 6.50 Beta 3
26.10.04   Added: Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F5 (when assigned manually to cm_packfiles) opens pack dialog for moving to archive in same dir

and wouldnt need code change.
