When using custom commands...

[JuvY]

First of all I would like to thank you for creating this wonderful program which I use each and everyday!

Now to my question...

When using custom commands is there a certain parameter that represents the path you are in at the moment?

Example:

I am right now in /files/downloads/ and I would like to make a command that will browse to another folder of my choice but with using the whole path..

Like CWD %PATH/another/folder

So the command would mean :

CWD /files/downloads/another/folder

I'm guessing this isn't possible... but what the heck...

And also is there a place where I can read of all the parameters and commands I can use in FlashFXP?

Thanks.

Anyone...?

Maybe I'm stupid, but if you simply use CWD another/folder you'll CWD from whatever current folder you're in when the custom-command is used. No need to involve any extra parameters. CWD will always use the folder you are in as its starting point. I could well be missing your real problem, though.

I'm not experiencing any problem... just wondering if there's a parameter or setting that I can use to represent the path I am in at the moment in custom commands.

Thanks!

no there is not.. however be warned that when sending ftp commands like CWD, all ftp commands are sent directly to the server without any pre/post proccessing. What that means is FlashFXP isn't kept up to date on directory changes so it doesn't know you changed folders.

Umm, bigstar, won't that just mean that after a custom-command is done, the next time you re-run a similar, or even the same command set, you'll start from the same directory as the GUI is on? Or will the CWD use a locally stored location, ie. remain in the last accessed location? If so, would a CWD - work?

what it means is flashfxp will think you are in one place but you'll be someplace else on the ftp server. This is something I never got around to dealing with and since no one complained I figured why bother
