INI setting to give the default search functions a custom name?

[Jose-Santiago3333]

I was reading how to do this the other day on the forum. Now I cannot find it.
I went through INI release page and did not find anything certain and I search the forum too

For example I want to rename the search function alternate-data-stream-ansi: to adsi:
Can anyone point me to the INI setting that will let me do this?
I know you can just a create a filter with a Macro but I really want to do it this way. Thanks

I think you are referring to the /define and /undef search commands?


/define <name>=<search>
Define a macro.
For example:
/define foo=bar
When searching for foo: it is now replaced with bar


/undef <name>
Undefine a macro.

So if you want alternate-data-stream-ansi: to become adsi:, use this command in the search bar:

/define adsi=alternate-data-stream-ansi:

(note that the substitution name you are defining does not need a colon, and the original function does need a colon, as shown above)

((note that alternate-data-stream-ansi: already has the built-in alias of ads-ansi: or just adsansi:))

FWIW:
those settings end up in macros.csv in the %APPDATA%\Everything folder.
Just in case you desperately want to edit something ...


(macros.csv is likely called macros-1.5a.csv on your system)
