why CTRL+ALT+F5 does not work?

Post by *oko »

I defined CTRL+ALT+F5 for cm_PackFiles but it does nothing. I wanted to use the shortcut for pack to the same panel.

Did you add the T parameter?
T for target wrote:T="target name": path and file name of the archive. Use T="" or T="." to pack to source directory with default name, or T="c:\path\." to pack to given path with default name.
Edit: Run this in the command line to open the help page with the details:

hh.exe %commander_path%\TOTALCMD.CHM::/dlg_choosecommand.htm
F4MiniMenu (Forum) - Open selected file(s) from TC in defined editor(s) - A (minimalistic) clone of F4Menu

Works fine for me. Perhaps you can try it with a new wincmd.ini file?
What does "does nothing mean" exactly?

For people not familiar with this trick, see this post.

I answer here all in one:
- "T" parameter is not necessary since keyboard shortcut contains CTRL.
- With clean TC it does not work too.
- "does nothing" means that it should show a pack window but it does not.
- SOLUTION: I have identified the problem: The keybord shortcuts in Intel graphics options was turned on. When I turned it off AND restart TC, the shortcut CTRL+ALT+F5 in TC works. It affects especifically the CTRL+ALT+F5 shortcut only. So if you need Intel graphics shortcuts turned on you have to use any other shortcut but not CTRL+ALT+F5.
