Hints and Tips (Configuration Editor)
Import and Export Total Commander settings
- Only listed keys in the right panel (Active, Inactive or All Keys) will be imported or exported.
- To import or export Active keys only, press F6 to show these keys only.
- To import or export all keys in all categories at once, click on the Total Commander icon and then on the File menu, click Import... or Export...
Exporting Inactive keys will delete these keys from the file you are exporting to it if they are exist.
Click on status bar data file field will popup a list of all data files in the program "Data Files" subfolder, if this folder not exist the program will search for data files in its folder. Double click on status bar data file field will show Open File dialog box.
If you want Total Commander use its default value for any key without deleting it from Wincmd.ini or Wcx_ftp.ini, you can Comment this key by pressing Shift + Delete.
By default the program will check if the data file you are opening has an old format and ask you to convert it to new format, skipping this step will make opening data file faster, to skip this:
- Run any text editor program (e.g. Notepad) and open the program INI file "ultra tc editors.ini"
- Create the key DetectOldFormat under [ConfigurationEditor] section.
- Set the key DetectOldFormat value to 0
In Data File any key description can be written in multi lines, if you want to change this and write key description in only one line (like old format):
- Run any text editor program (e.g. Notepad) and open the program INI file "ultra tc editors.ini"
- Create the key MultiLineDescription under [ConfigurationEditor] section.
- Set the key MultiLineDescription value to 0
- Run the program and do any change to the data file and save it. (e.g. type a character then delete it, just to make Save button visible.)
Beginning of version 5.50 the program comments a key by adding comma ',' at the front of its name instead of the standard character semicolon ';'. This is because the API function GetPrivateProfileSection (under Windows XP/2000) strip out all lines that starts with a semicolon, therefore any key commented by semicolon was not recognized by the program.
If you still want using semicolon for commenting the keys, do the following:
- Run any text editor program (e.g. Notepad) and open the program INI file "ultra tc editors.ini"
- Create the key CommentString under [ConfigurationEditor] section.
- Set the key CommentString value to ;
By default Bits Sum dialog box shows only bit description, to change this:
- Run any text editor program (e.g. Notepad) and open the program INI file "ultra tc editors.ini"
- Create the key BitsSumOption under [ConfigurationEditor] section.
- Set the key BitsSumOption value to:
- 1= Show bit value only.
- 2= Show bit description only.
- 3= Show both bit value and description.
