Latest FARR v2.00.140 ALPHA PREVIEW Release - Aug 15, 2007

I can easily recreate it, but what is it that you're asking for? Do you mean the link target i.e. UNC path?
mouser:
right ok so its UNC path -- FARR is not supposed to be trying to resolve those, but maybe the code snuck back in somewhere, like checking icon. let me try to duplicate and if i can't i'll ask you for the shotcut info.

Hi,
I tried the new alpha just now and it looks fabulous! It looked promising a few months ago, now it is delivering on them :)
I have one simple wish though. I don't know if this has been voiced before, but when I try and type something that works on the normal run window, it doesn't work here. Let me explain:
For example the control panel applets could be run by executing the appropriate *.cpl file:
"sysdm.cpl" for system properties, startup.cpl for startup entries and so on. When I try this with Find and Run robot, it says there are 0 results (which is understandable) but then refuses to run whatever I have typed in.
Incase I am not clear, could you update this so that, when there are 0 results, it will work *exactly* like the standard run box dialog,
and when there are some results, a modifier (maybe shift+enter) that allows me to force it to work exactly as the run box.
This is especially critical when I am running an alternate shell (I sometimes use Blackbox as my shell in wondows) and cannot avail of the standard run dialog at all.
And once again congrats on a stellar program!

mouser:
you can type:
run sysdm.cpl
"run .*" is an alias that will run something as if you ran it from run box.
also, you can type:
"cpanel .*" where .* is some keywords, and it will show/filter control panel items to run.

Thank you.
FARR doesn't seem to remember such "run" commands in history though.
Apart from that, I would still want you to consider it to be a feature request though.
Incase I am not clear, could you update this so that, when there are 0 results, it will work *exactly* like the standard run box dialog,
and when there are some results, a modifier (maybe shift+enter) that allows me to force it to work exactly as the run box.

This could maybe enabled in the advanced options?
Anyway, even without any more features, FARR has just replaced my current launcher (which was launchy btw) ;)
Thank you.
