Hello,
This is a good question. I would like to know the answer too.

Hello,

I am trying to figure out why there are differences between file name search and content search when using regular expressions.
For instance to find "memo" or "mémo" in the content of text files, I can use the classical regex : "m(e|é)mo".
Whereas, to find "memo" or "mémo" in the file name ...

Thank you very much NetMage.
I will get a look at it to further understand how it works.

Good question, even when not using xdoc2txt.

I did a bit of searching and found that this regex works (?s)(?=.*word1)(?=.*word2) regardless of the order of "word1" and "word2", and even if they are on separate lines.
It is cumbersome but it works.
If a simpler way exists, I would like to know too.

I don't know what you mean exactly by "clean up" but I guess that you deleted the folder permanently (SHIFT + SUPPR) or something equivalent.
You need a tool like Recuva to try to get your data back if it has not been written over.
The best option is to remove your hard drive (where the folder was ...

Interesting topic.
But I did not find a solution to your problem either.

The link provided by Marek gives some information on the synthax.
Where can I find the full documentation (for free)?
I am kind of lost among all the regex flavor documentations available, I would like to know better the one ...

Still using 7z.exe, I made this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.IO;

namespace Converter2Txt
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
ConvertToTxt(args[0], args[1]);
}

static void ConvertToTxt(string inputFile, string ...

Ok, too bad. I will stick to Robocopy then.
Do you plan to add this functionality anytime soon?

Hello,

Occasionally, I need to synchronize several folders (at once) on an external drive.
Currently I use robocoy in a script but I would like to do it with the synchronize tool of FC which is much more user friendly.
It seems that it can only be done one folder at a time.
I thought that using a ...

Good point, like you, I had problems with unsaved Viewer settings that were driving me nuts.
Unckecking "use same settings for viewer and quick viewer" worked for me.

Thank you Max

That's it, the "View->Show converted file" parameter is the key.
Using 7z.exe (refer to post#4) works like a charm with these parameters:
[TfcViewerForm_Converter]
Enabled1=1
Filter1=.zip.7z
Prg1=C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe
TargetExt1=.txt
Param1=l "%ConvertSourceFile%" >%ConvertTargetFile%

The ...

OK, I tried it this morning when I looked more carefully to the meaning of your previous post, but I still can't make it work.
Here is the code:
// first argument is not used, second argument is used as name of the created (dummy) file
using System;
using System.IO;

namespace CreateTxt2
{
class ...

OK, so I did what you explained: I created an exe file that takes a filename as input and creates a text file as output with the same filename (but with a .txt extension).
I did it with a simple (quick and dirty) C# class just for testing.

using System;
using System.IO;

namespace CreateTxt ...

I can't believe there is only one converter compatible with FreeCommander: xdoc2text.exe.
There got to be other converters or a way to make one.

Please give me some hints.

To take the "zip file" example again, I tried to configure a converter with 7z.exe (which is the command line version of 7zFM.exe we currently use with GUI).
Writing the following code in a console displays the content of "test.zip":
PS D:\folder> .\7z.exe l test.zip
I thought it would be easy to ...
