Altap Salamander Support Forums

Because Windows allows semicolons in file names, using semicolon as a separator between masks in the Find dialog leads to failed search in some cases. If I want to find files that match firstpart;*, I shouldn't use Salamander for it because it simply returns all files. A solution to this would be to use a character that is not allowed in file names as a mask separator. Or a combination of characters.

Find dialog is using File Masks: http://www.altap.cz/salam_en/help/salam ... g_main.htm

If you need a semi-colon inside mask, type it twice (e.g. one;;mask): http://www.altap.cz/salam_en/help/salam ... emasks.htm
