additional space after inputing alias for a folder path
« on: March 12, 2011, 11:30 AM »
I have a folder, say "e:\downloads\" which is assigned the alias "dl". Now, i want to do a folder search. When I input dl in Faar, the folder appears, I press Alt+Right Arrow to make the input box switch to the path. However, there's a additional space after the path "e:\downloads\ ", which prevents Faar from recognising it as a folder path when I continue typing. How can I resolve that other than manually doing a backspace? Thanks.


edit:
found the solution with dosearch & tab. thanks for the great software, mouser.

edit2:
even better with dolaunch restartsearch. thanks a million, mouser.
