Lanux I am using shortcut and I have "loc -lfd -p" in the shortcut text field. What happens is that Farr searches for plugins for a while before letting me type. Probably there should be a better way to invoke it.

why not try using an alias, that way you can also assign different keywords to different options. just a thought.

btw, Farr doesn't stall when i type 'loc' on my PC. assuming that your shortcut starts with 'loc'.

I like it too. Great move.

yeah, for the tree options!

@kartal: how do you invoke the plugin, via an alias?

kartal · « **Reply #78 on:** June 26, 2008, 04:33 AM »

no typing loc does not stall Farr. The problem is loc with options in this case "loc -lfd -p". This forces Farr to search plugins because it seems like Farr does not recognize "loc -lfd -p" as "loc" with search options.

A redesigned options dialog, no skinning in the rest of the interface, faster saving of the settings file... those are the improvements!

Love the new options dialog. Great job as always

I must say, very impressive! im glad that i found this thing! Thanks for your hard work!

New version 2.14.01 is now up (let's hope i don't regret putting this through private beta).

The most notable change is that you can now filter the built in lists like:

agroups - list of all known aliases
aplugins - list of all known plugins
historys - past search history
historyl - past launch history

[BugFix] - But the remove-duplicates option back in Search Behavior tab -- used to be checked by default.

does rplugins work for you??

kartal · « **Reply #89 on:** July 02, 2008, 03:31 PM »

Launching web links or commands from a list style alias via f keys or ctl+numbers is broken. v2.13.03 this has been the best version that things were working fine.

Just type "news" and try launch any of them.

2- Maybe that has been mentioned before : farr finds but cannot launch a file if it has a space as the last character of its name
(e.g. : E:\Doct\xLC-.Moreno,Jacob L.__Théâtre de la spontanéité__+tgsPat tgsPthée+ .doc)

3- There still seems to be a problem with certain characters and folder names. I'm not 100% sure, but it seems to be related to the "É" character (only?). i.e. : each time one my folder names uses the É character, farr won't display the subfolders and files it contains. (see attachment in previous post) (see attachment in previous post)And here are 2 extra ideas for the future :

Seems that the space character inside URL links still haunts FARR.
Pity (although can be bypassed by copying tothe WIN+R command line)

mouser · « **Reply #91 on:** July 02, 2008, 05:01 PM »

i changed rplugins to: goreload
to make it more consistent with the other "instant" strings like gohelp,goupdate, etc. and to emphasize the fact that it reloads both plugins and alias files.

can anyone confirm this -- it seems to be working fine here.

kRs · « **Reply #93 on:** July 02, 2008, 09:53 PM »

Here seems to work well.. I tried with news and search, either with function keys or ctrl + number

Armando · « **Reply #94 on:** July 02, 2008, 10:30 PM »

seems to work here too. v.2.14.01

lanux128 · « **Reply #95 on:** July 03, 2008, 08:55 AM »

mouser, the 'remove missing item' option doesn't seem to work (see pic). any suggestions? i'm using 2.14.01

Please don't forget to add the ability to display file extensions on file browsing only

Christian.Eitner · « **Reply #97 on:** July 03, 2008, 12:07 PM »

For me, 2.14 reintroduces the problem that keyword aliases don't fire immediately, but bring up a list instead. I think this was once introduced with 2.10 and solved with 2.12.

Anyone else?

Cheers,

Christian

mouser · « **Reply #98 on:** July 03, 2008, 04:04 PM »

Christian, can you give me an example of what happens (preferably using a built in alias that i also have) so i can reproduce and test?

mouser · « **Reply #99 on:** July 04, 2008, 03:30 PM »

Minor alpha update -- see first post for list of changes.
