OPENBARMENU parameter issue with %env% var

[funkymonk]

TC11.00rc2 x32:

This works:

Code: Select all

[Shortcuts]
C+P=OPENBARMENU
C+P_params=c:\totalcmd\bar\filedate.bar 

These params don't not work:

Code: Select all

C+P_params="%COMMANDER_PATH%\bar\filedate.bar"  
C+P_params=%COMMANDER_PATH%\bar\filedate.bar

It's BTW the same for user commands in usercmd.ini if OPENBARMENU is called with a param that contains an env var.

Use:

Code: Select all

C+P_params="%|COMMANDER_PATH|\bar\filedate.bar"  
C+P_params=%|COMMANDER_PATH|\bar\filedate.bar

%|envvar|
Insert environment variable envvar in the parameters field. Using %envvar% directly isn't possible, because the % sign is already used for placeholders. Therefore this modified syntax needs to be used. The "command" field still uses the normal %envvar% field.

You need to use %|envvar| in the Parameters field of Buttons, Shortcuts, em_commands and in the Command line.
You need to use %envar% in the Command field of Buttons and em_commands

If your command is %COMSPEC% or cmd.exe you can use %%envar%% in the Parameters field.

@petermad Thank you.

Right. I have even read that somewhere but totally forgot!
