IDEA: go to parent folder with double-click

<< < (2/5) > >>

jgpaiva:
But for that you always need to know what folder you are in as well. It is unlikely that running cd.. would work.

A possible solution would be to send the backspace key... If nothing is selected, it'll go to parent folder ;)

justice:
ah yes so it's just turn double click into backspace.

The code below should get someone started but at the moment it sends backspace to any application for anything on double click, causing problems in texteditors etc ;) I need someone else to take it further.

Also it seems vista does the double click to parent window in explorer already. Also it might make sense to change it to double-rightclick which causes less interference.

My code may be very messy and ugly but it seems to work. It's based on your code Justice :

Any improvement and/or advice is welcome :)

justice:
Hey great work :D
A use of controlget that I had not seen before  :Thmbsup: Well done!
I've enclosed a compiled version of the script.

ak_:
Thanks ! :)

I modified it so it works in explorer windows too.

I also made an icon because i like to use custom tray icon so i can easily locate scripts in the tray. It is in the zip attached to this post.
