Saved search: how to put a current path there (like %P) instead of a literal one?

[beb]

Let's say, I'd wish to have a universal command to find duplicates.
Let's say, I set up a search and saved it for future needs.
Alas, the saved entry would feature a literal path used upon saving.
Instead, I'd like to have a path from an active pane as the root for the search.
How to do that?

Here's what it looks like in the .ini (implies the fixed path):

Code: Select all

duplicates_SearchFor=
duplicates_SearchIn=l:iteral\path\upon\saving\the\search
duplicates_SearchText=
duplicates_SearchFlags=0|007002010021|||||||||1110|||

Here's what I would like to have (implies a variable that reflects a current path):

Code: Select all

duplicates_SearchFor=
duplicates_SearchIn=%P
duplicates_SearchText=
duplicates_SearchFlags=0|007002010021|||||||||1110|||

Where %P is a known TotalCommander's 'special parameter' for 'the source path to be inserted into the command line...'

Oh, sorry.
As soon as I posted it here, out of curiosity, I just tried to put the "duplicates_SearchIn=" empty and it just worked as intended.

Code: Select all

duplicates_SearchFor=
duplicates_SearchIn=
duplicates_SearchText=
duplicates_SearchFlags=0|007002010021|||||||||1110|||

PS Now I'm unsure if this is useful info, or should the thread be deleted?

If you leave the field "Search in" empty, TC will use the current path for the search. Or put a > character in it before saving the search:

Search in:
Put '>' character in this field before saving the search to keep the "Search in" field unchanged when loading the saved search.

Thank you, now I see it in the help.
The TotalCommader help (chm) index includes five entries regarding search: Search; Search function; Searching; Searching files; Searching for file contents.
Somehow before asking here I didn't make it to the description you're citing
