Copy of multiple Properties

Copy of multiple Properties

As it is, if you copy a Property of multiple files, like sha1:,
if you were to paste said copy, it gets pasted with OR's.

If your intent is to then search using said sha1:,
would it make more sense if they were pasted with semi-colon ?

that way, sha1:<paste> & you have your answer

Code: Select all

sha1:4aee2...|a8ee6...
vs.
sha1:4aee2...;a8ee6...
same could be said about size
date wouldn't work, particularly, cause there is no tolerance factor

eh, maybe not?

Everything copies each property value to a separate line on the clipboard.

Pasting multi-line text will convert the new lines to: |



One option is to wrap the pasted text inside sha1:< >
Everything will treat the < > group as a sub expression.



I have on my TODO list to add sizelist1: and sha256list1: that behave similar to file list slots.
It will be much easier to paste multi-line text into these lists.



I will consider eating | as a list separator for size:/sha1:.
Thank you for the suggestion.
