- + Scripting: New command "run". Works (almost) identical to Windows Start | Run, i.e. you can start executables, open documents with the OS-asociated applications, open websites, and much more.
Syntax: run command
command: Anything that works in Windows Start | Run. Note that
filenames containing blanks must be quoted to correctly
separate filename and any parameters.
The differences to the original Windows Start | Run are:
- Different error messages in case of failure.
- Quoting items with blanks slightly differs:
::run ""C:\With Blank.txt""
Filename with blanks must be quoted.
Note that the quotes have to be doubled here because an
argument's outer quotes are auto-stripped by XY's
script parser!
::run "C:\Program Files\Winzip32.exe" -min
Here the "single" quotes are enough because the argument is
not quoted as a whole (hence no auto-stripping will happen).
Examples:
::run calc
Registered apps are recognized via "Prog ID" which is usually
the base name of the *.exe file.
::run winzip32 -min
No blanks in the filename: No quotes nececessary...
::run "winzip32" -min
... but quotes are allowed.
::run www.xyplorer.com
Open an URL.
::run control
Show Control Panel.
::run charmap
Show character map utility.
::run regedit
Open registry editor.
::run winver
Display the Windows verson installed on the computer.
::run mailto:support@xyplorer.com?subject=Wow!&body=Hi!
Open email client with some fields prefilled.
::run "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL timedate.cpl"
Show Windows Time/Date dialog.
::run "rundll32.exe shell32.dll,OpenAs_RunDLL <curitem>"
Open the OS OpenWith dialog for the current item.
Note that in this case <curitem> has not to be quoted even if
it contains blanks; rundll32.exe is smart enough to handle it. - ! Tree, List: Click on selected item, and shortly after on unselected item, would incorrectly invoke rename mode on the latter (if Rename On Slow DblClick is enabled). Fixed.
