Favorite Folders

Is there a way to set up "tabs"for folders that you constantly access? If so, can a specific side of the Commander lister be designated -- Give me c:\Users on the left pane"?

You can set up various tabs & save them per GO TABGROUPSAVE. You can then set up a menu button, where you can open various tabgroups with GO TABGROUPLOAD, or setting ap a menu button containing the GO TABGROUPLIST=keys command. You can add arguments like OPENINLEFT or OPENINRIGHT to open tabgroups on both sides.

Also, if you don't want the tabs grouped, you can (In Customize mode) just drag a folder to a toolbar. Then edit the Go command of the created button to include parameters like NewTab, OpenInLeft, etc.

Ah...OK, I'll give these ideas a shot. Thanks.

Guys, when I tried

Go "C:\Program Files" OPEININRIGHT

I get an error message that the folder cannot be forund.

Huh?

Try it with OPENINRIGHT spelled properly. :slight_smile: You've got an extra I in the word OPEN.

Now there's a feature request. Spiel chequer in dialogues etc.

A tip for others.

I am picky about spelling, it is how I earn a living. When writing anything outside programs that don't spell check for me, I use a clipboard utility (ClipMate) that spell checks clips. I suspect that other utilities do likewise.

It will not, or course, have OPEININRIGHT in its dictionary. But you can add it.

So when writing code, copy it to the clipboard. Let it spell check. Look at what you see. If your spelling is write (it won't do grammar) add the word. If not correct it.

This may not be a good idea for the causal codehead, but frequent programmers may find it useful.

Sometimes a spell checker just isn't enough...

Duh!

Sorry 'bout that!
