Need help with optional parameters in aliases

<< < (3/4) > >>

That'll be perfect, because then i could use AutohotKey to intercept the TABS (or another free key in my keyboard) and replace them with ++ when FARR is active. Anyway thanks again for your help, your support is impressive.

im open to other ways to handle arguments with spaces.. it's just that tab is out of the question since it's used differently in farr.

is tab doing anything that i am missing? it autocompletes the text, right? if it's all it does why couldn't it be like launchy? autocomplete plus a separator for the arguments?

this could be done.. tab would autocomplete and then add the ++ for you automatically so you could put some optional commandline options.  certainly i could add an option for this at the very least.

If that could be done, could a special character separator be used instead of the ++? something like ►, » or •? I am thinking that the user never has to type it, because we can use tab to autocomplete and add a separator, so why not use a character that is IMHO visually clearer?

I am thinking also if multiple parameters are needed you could just keep pressing tab to insert aditional separators. And I am not sure if this is needed in file browsing mode.....

I've testing it more and i think i have a problem

I use this regular expression : ^rtm|gtd

I type rtm ++ arg1 ++ arg 2

the arg1 my program receives is "++ . arg1"

EDIT : My fault, i didn't realize that the ++ as parameter separator is not implemented in current release.
typing rtm ++ arg1 arg2 arg3 works fine.
