Altap Salamander Support Forums

Hi, I don't know if this is a common knowledge but here goes nothing... I unpack archives ( read: releases ) contained in directories on the daily basis. So my procedure, until now, was to copy the name of the containing directory, create a directory with the same name on another drive, enter source...

Hi, Checksum plug-in already has recursive directory scanning, but all results are stored in a single checksum file. I'd like to be able to select a single directory and have Checksum plug-in create one checksum file in each subdirectory (based either on content filenames or directory name), if chec...

Ach, crivens! I forgot 'bout this post. I've tried this "feature" again in RC3 and I cannot reproduce it. If you have an open bug please close it.

Instead of going into Quick Rename and copying the full file name, select the file and press [Alt]+[Shift]+[Insert].

While we're on the subject... That "Do you want to cancel this operation?" dialog doesn't understand [Esc] key as "No." That wouldn't be too bad if it didn't pass the keypress to the parent dialog. So, if I try to chase it away with [Esc] it does nothing, but then when I click &q...

Sorry, Petr, I completely forgot 'bout this post. So... ReGet Deluxe creates these files. What happens, you download a file that has %20 at the end of a URL and ReGet creates a 0-byte file with that space at the end of a filename, and another, with all the data and without that space at the end of a...

Not useless if it'll let us find the process that locked a certain file.

I simply gave up and use Process Explorer with "Replace Task Manager" feature enabled.

Hi, Salamander doesn't handle files with a space at the end of extension properly. If I try to delete a bunch of these files it'll say system cannot find the file specified but I can delete 'em one by one. Also, if I have two files, one without the space behind extension and one with that space, and...

Hi,
I've found a strange behavior...

When I copy/move files to another location, if I modify the "*.*" to something like "A*.*" I loose the first character of the filename in the process, instead of Salamander appending a character to the original name.

Hi, this one should also be pretty easy to implement. If I select only one directory/file and want to copy/move it to another directory you could pre-fill the appropriate dialogs with the selected entry's name instead of appending "*.*" to destination path. That way people could easily cop...

Hi, when I'm going back/forward through the history if one of the browsed directories is missing I get a "Error Changing Directory" dialog. Now, while I appreciate the fact that you guys catch all exceptions this dialog is not of all that much use. You should simply skip to the next histor...

Maybe a "new" dialog that'd only display the filename? With a new shortcut? [Shift]+[F2]? Or, maybe a better idea, display filename and extension in separate textboxes and preselect the contents of the first textbox (filename)? User could simply [Tab] into the next textbox and extension wo...

Is this what you're looking for? Short example listing:
So you could make a list of all found directories/files with their full paths.

This should be solved once Altap guys enable us to find files/directories and "redirect" the matching results into panels. That way you could [Alt]+[F7] search for *.* through a certain directory, redirect the results into a panel and then make a file list of everything.

Hi, when I work on laptops it's easier to use [Shift]+[Page Down] to select all content of a directory than to hunt down for [Num *] combo. The last file/directory in the panel is not selected, though. On the other hand, [Shift]+[End] selects the last entry just fine but that usually requires anothe...
