Behavior of Open Path in case of using FRC

[joye-ramone]

Greeting,

As of now, when I use FRC with Everything search tool, both commands (Open Path and Open (Folders)) will work the same way for folder type of elements - open it.

But it would be nice if FRC provide a separate command to always Open Path of element no matter it is type - for file just open it parent folder and put selection on it and same for folder - open it parent folder and put selection on it. Actually, for files it is already working like this.

Examples:

1. file c:\folder\file.txt Open Path - open folder c:\folder and put selection at file.txt - that already work as expected

2. folder c:\folder\folder123 - that is what I am looking at Open Path - open folder c:\folder\ and put selection at folder123 - that is what I am looking for. And Open (Folders) - just open target folder c:\folder\folder123 - as it works right now.

Hey there and sorry for the delay! I see what you are saying, you want one option for it to behave just like goto: in FAR, which will also behave exactly like what you describe. That is no problem to do, I will get on it as soon as possible.

This is implemented in 654e044cda0d5e4f4615a6e15a0569dedb3ed441 and available in the newly released version 2.2. It works like this:

• GOTO now does what you requested, i.e. it always navigates to the parent directory and moves the cursor.
• INTO now implements the old behavior of GOTO where it will navigate into directories.

Perfect! Thank you once again for this nice idea of this plugin.
