Is there a way to start Q-Dir with a parameter of path? E.g, I can do this with?
Q-Dir startup parameters or arguments for folders eg. directories:
Yes Q-Dir "c:\" "d:\" "e:\" "f:\"
Subsidiary question:
That's what I had tried, but without quotation marks. And always get the message: 'Failed to open the source file'. And I'm so in the next issue.
Q Dir.exe "Z: \" - works in the program directory, but
"C:\Program Files\Q-Dir\Q-Dir.exe" "Z:\" - from a bat does not work!
From the bat, you should use environment variable:
Maybe, the folder "Program Files" does not exist ;-)
I encounter one problem, though.
To keep this short. I wrote a simple batch file called C:\test.bat as such:
[quote]
echo %1
echo %2
echo %3
echo %4
echo %5
pause
[/quote]
Then, in Q-Dir, I added new Program entry at Options->Programs as such:
Now, the problem is, if I turn on 2x2 view layout and I change directories to i.e. C:\ in the 1st view, D:\ in 2nd, E:\ in 3rd and F:\ in 4th (my disk partitions) then after starting test.bat i.e. from within the 3rd view, where path is E:\, the output I get is:
[quote]
E:\
E:\
E:\
E:\
E:\
[/quote]
I wanted to add WinDiff or a similar application that compares 2 folders, but whatever variable (%curdir%, %curdir1% etc.) I use in the program entry as the parameter it is always replaced with the path to the currently active directory.
That shoudn't be I think. Maybe I am missing something. Please help.
