Drive name in taskbar

[bennyutzer]

this has been asked once before, but did not exist at the time in 2011:

View drive label instead of drive letter on windows taskbar?

Is there a way to make DOpus show the drive label in the Windows Taskbar the way Explorer does? I have many local and networked drives (8 not including optical and removable) and i don't always think of them in terms of their drive letter.. I've foun…

is there a way to make OPUS display the name of a drive in the taskbar, like in windows explorer?

OPUS displays folders and special elements just like windows explorer, but with drives it goes a different way.

When you have many drives, the letter becomes a useless identifier. having the name of the drive (plus the letter) like in windows explorer would increase usability.

does this already exist, and can it be configured? Please advise.

The only way to add that to the window title currently would be through scripting.

interesting. can you point me to a resource for this?

Scripting in general:

The Set LISTERTITLE command/argument can be used to set a custom window title. Set command documentation

There are some examples around the forum. This is the most fleshed out, although also the most complex:

• Tab-Labelizer - Extend the folder names shown in your tabs

More simple example:

• Showing git branch in dopus - #10 by chaoticbob
