Highlight and tabulate filenames with keypress #1690

Open Maximus5 opened 9 years ago

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 1691

Would be great if current ability to open files in editor when clicking would be enhanced
that ie. readme.txt would be underlined and clickable like urls are. It would be enhanced
with current directory path and send to editor.

Btw, I was never able to make clicking on files setup to work...

What you said about "files setup"?

Hmm I mean clicking on files (with ie. ctrl pressed) and opening an editor.
But now I have found that it is working in special case where also line number is displayed.
It would be great if it worked without the line also.

Oh I just tried your implementation of this, it is wonderful! Thank you so very much!!!

I have to say that for me it is opening a whole new level for using conemu (which is
btw application number one i am using when developing - together with git and bash).

I have some more ideas what would make this feature even more awesome, but I do not
know if it is possible. I will try to express myself, maybe you can be interested.

First, I am missing keyboard support for this. What would be the greatest for me:
Press some key (i.e. ctrl+tab) and first file in output would be underlined. Then using
cursors up/left/right/down I would select the right file. Then pressing enter would
ie copy to clipboard (or even paste to command line), ctrl+enter would run editor...

If some kind of macro/customizing of actions would be possible, then conemu would become
a monster.

And let me dream little more - maybe even directories would me selectable and I could
"cd" to them - by submitting "cd $dir"...

Ok, I do not really expect this would happen, but I had to write it here... :-)

Once more, thanks again very much for conemu, it saves me every day.

Well, that may be a funny feature, but that looks like a file manager )
May be later that will be available. I think about highlighting all matches (find dialog).
And your suggestion has something common.

However, I do not think that it can be released soon. And if you need file manager
- check out FarManager.
