    Ranges dialog not in TCC/LE?

    Hi there, I thought typing "Dir /[=]" will bring up a ranges selection dialog as explained in the help file. But nothing happens. It lists down the contents. Is this one of the "Not in LE" feature? -- Holla. Thanks,

    My difficulties with handling the clip:boad

    Just to update: I found @clipw which does what I want: (it does not add the extra 0d/0a) for /f "tokens=*" %a in ('grep -i %$ %MyHome%\passwords-file.txt') set gpwd=%@clipw[%@field[" :^"",-0,%a]] - That sets the last matching line; not perfect, but works for me for personal use.

    Windows 7 compatibility

    Just ignore the above post. I found out that there is no photoviewer.dll in "windows Photo gallery" directory. It is in "windows photo viewer" directory. I am right not in the process of searching and replacing gallery by viewer in registry.

    Windows 7 compatibility

    After I migrated to Windows7 (from Vista), I started getting this error whenever I try to launch a jpg from TCC command line. (That is if I type the jpg filename at the tcc command prompt and press enter). Windows throws a popup message box saying "There was a problem starting C:\Program...

    Did you mean: SpellCorrection?

    I am pathetic at pyting on the computer and I keep making pselling mitsakes. So I wrote a batch file to correct myself. Just for the heck of it. That is, if you type "dri" instead of "dir", it prompts you - Did you mean "dir"? The "did you mean" concept is stolen from google. hope they dont...

    Auto-Exit of a bat file (no prompt)

    I dont know of any setting .... But there is break off and "on break" commands. On break can be used within a batch file to handle how breaks have to be dealt with. Break off: if you put this in tcstart.btm, then your tccle batch commands can not be interrupted using control-breaks. May...

    Question on File completion

    I have a file called 2do.txt. If I type 2 at the command prompt and press tab, cmd.exe expands the filename and completes it. Is there any setting in TCC by which this can be achieved. I know I can get TCC to expand the filename(non-executable) if I prefix it with a space. I tried with...

    $M in PROMPT

    Is there a way to display the remote name associated with a drive like cmd.exe? In cmd.exe's prompt, $M Displays the remote name associated with the current drive letter or the empty string if current drive is not a network drive.
