Working with list of files

[Gabarito]

I'm working with too many virtual drives.
Each of them is assigned to a drive letter.
I listed all files using a search like this:

Code: Select all

g:\ | h:\ | i:\ | j:\ | k:\

And exported a list of files to "allDrives.efu".

The list is this (showing only the path):

To make it easier to know what drive I'm working on, I'd like to change the letter to each volume number.
And I edited the list using a text editor, replacing the letter by the number, accordingly.

But...

If I load the list, Everything insert the current folder of the efu's file before the number.
Like this:

Note that I put "32:\" (Volume number) replacing "C:\".

But Everything insert current file folder before this ("32:\"), in that case, "C:\temp\".
And I got:
"C:\temp\32:\Windows\assembly\NativeImages_v4.0.30..."

How to get rid of this "C:\temp\"?


So, the question is:
How to remove this folder (C:\temp\) and keep only the volume number?
I mean, when I load the list of files.

Thank you.

Drive"letters" can be only 1 character.
Choose a number form 0 - 9 instaed of 32.

I was eager for an answer.
Thanks for the tip.
I will do this.

But I already anticipate a small problem. I have more than 10 virtual volumes, which means I will never have all of them in the same EFU file.

Even so, it is already a great help to be able to use numbers from 0 to 9 to get around the problem.

Thanks.

You can also create drives like

~:\

,

+:\

or

@:\

(btw: not tested in Everything, but generally works).


Don't know is this is easier than X:\, etc though ...

Good idea!!!

Yeah, I have many other characters to replace them.

Case closed!

Everything 1.5.0.1372a will no longer treat 32: in file lists as a relative path.

Simply wonderful!!!


It works very well.
Thank you!
