How does the suggestion list and auto append work?
The suggestion list is built one of two ways:
File system commands
These are commands that begin with "<drive>:" or "\\". The suggestion
list is built by getting the base directory of the text that is typed and retrieving
all the files and directories that exist in that base directory. Then that list
is filtered by the text that follows the base directory name, for example "c:\wi"
the base directory is "c:\" and the filter is "wi" so in this case the suggestion
list will contain only files or directories in "c:\" that start with "wi". Then
the list is sorted by the number of times you have accessed a particular file or
directory from Run++ and then
sorted alphabetically.
Normal text commands
These are all other commands. The suggestion list is built by combining the list
custom commands with the list of all pre-loaded commands into a single list. Then
that list is filtered by the text that is typed, so that only commands that start
with that text are in the suggestion list. Then the list sorted by the number of
times you have ran that command through Run++
and then sorted alphabetically.
Auto-append simply takes the first item in the suggestion list and if that item
starts with the text that was typed in it takes and appends the tail end of the
item text to the text in the Run++
prompt and then selects the text that was appended.
Is Run++ free?
Yes it is free. All I ask is if you like the program please link to it or post about it in your weblog. Even if you don't like the program please send feedback or post about it in your weblog and tell me what you don't like about it.
Is the source code available for Run++?
Not at this time, however I do intend to release all the C# source code for the project in time.
How do I get a question answered that is not listed?
Contact runpp@puzzleware.net with your question.
