    I must hit enter key still (seem "\n" no effect)

2. reference "Reply #13", 
    if my alias name is "aa", then this item launch when I type "aa" (seem regular pattern no effect)
    if my alias name is "aTest", then this item launch when I type "aa "

Version 2.72.01 (post in Reply #18 on: July 15, 2009, 03:07:48 AM) still not solve question that post in Reply #13.
The version result in below bug appear again if I try to run Reply #13 :
  Using the new "dolaunch" feature resulted in FARR launching the item every time it was displayed.

alias pad :
pattern : [ ]*pad[ ]+(".*").*$
results : notepad.exe $$1

alias aa :
pattern : ^aa $
results : dolaunch pad "this is aa"

when I type  aa,  FARR won't execute notepad.exe  (so file "this is aa" won't create)

I just wish alias aa can work right,
because I have many alias like a1, a2, ...., all of them need call alias pad.

(I can only temp do a1, a2, ... by dosearch, but I wish without hitting enter key)

sorry for my poor english

Find And Run Robot / another more important bug of dolaunch !!!

« Last post by hihihlo on June 29, 2009, 09:08 PM »

Thanks you for fix dolaunch re-launching bug.
But I found a more major bug of dolaunch !!!

alias pad :
pattern : [ ]*pad[ ]+(".*").*$
results : notepad.exe $$1

alias aa :
pattern : ^aa $
results : dolaunch pad "this is aa"

alias bb :
pattern : ^bb $
results : dosearch pad "this is bb"

when I type  ' pad "test" ',  it call notepad and pass param "test" to notepad.
when I type  'aa ',  it do nothing !!
when I type  'bb ',  it did as expected

It seem should have same behavior for dolaunch and dosearch, but it's not so.

Best Regards.

ps1: My options setting is same as skajfes' suggest
ps2: if you can't reappear above bug, attached file is my whole setting file

Find And Run Robot / bug report - dolaunch

« Last post by hihihlo on June 22, 2009, 09:56 PM »

I encountered two bug of special alias "dolaunch", my setting is below :
regular pattern : ^kk $
result          : dolaunch "notepad.exe"

bug1: when I keyin "kk" (NOT "kk ") it will launch notepad
bug2: once launch alias kk, FARR always can't active via hotkey;
      It will launch notepad directly when press active hotkey (break key)

regardless of whether uncheck "when using hotkey to refocus window ... dont clear search text" option,
bug2 always happen.

I can only temporary solve bug2 using :
  dolaunch "notepad.exe";;;restartsearch \n
but this is unnatural and bit slow when active FARR window

Best Regards.

Find And Run Robot / how can execute a alias without hit enter key ?

« Last post by hihihlo on June 05, 2009, 12:12 AM »

without hit enter key like goquit, gooptions can do.

Regular pattern : ^o $

Find And Run Robot / [Find And Run Robot] disadvantage of navigate folder using alias name

« Last post by hihihlo on June 04, 2009, 12:19 AM »

FARR' folder navigation feature is very important for me !
If I type "harddi" in editbox and "c:\test\HardDisk\" appear in fist line of result area,
I can press 'TAB' key to show "c:\test\HardDisk\" in editbox and show files & subfolder in result area.

Now I add a alias word name "hd",
I hope typing "hd" in editbox and press 'TAB' key can show "c:\test\HardDisk\" in editbox as above,
but FARR always append a space char in editbox (became "c:\test\HardDisk\ ") !
If I want locate into subfolder below "HardDisk\" by type part subfolder name,
I must press 'backspace' key first else FARR can't find some item !
This is too inconvenient !

---------- My setting in "edit group alias" dialog :
alias name : "c:\test\HardDisk\"   (for can use 'TAB' key to auto complete)
Regular Pattern : ^hd$
Result : "c:\test\HardDisk\"

Can you provide a option to disable append space char when auto complete ?
Or add a optional editbox field "Restart search when auto complete",
similar press 'ENTER' key to execute "restartsearch" keyword.

Thanks your great program.

Best Regards.
