    KEYSTACK - cannot send AltGr characters

    I tested with TCC 28. There these suggestions work, thanks for that! keystack ctrl-alt-@ keystack ctrl-alt-"2" Sadly none of them work in TCC 20, so I guess I'll finally have to upgrade if I want to use this. (I intended it for entering an email-address plus password.) Plain KEYSTACK "@"...

    KEYSTACK - cannot send AltGr characters

    Thanks for the suggestion, but it does not work for me. Nothing is produced by KEYSTACK for those values. I also tested with ctrl-alt-2, but also did not work. Then I tried simply "KEYSTACK 64" to produce a "@" character that way. Also did not work, but "KEYSTACK 65" produced an "A" as...

    KEYSTACK - cannot send AltGr characters

    I have a problem using KEYSTACK to send characters produced by the Alt Gr key. For example: [C:\]keystack "@£$€{[]}\" [C:\]2£4€7890+ It sends the key that would have been produced without AltGr instead, e.g. "2" instead of "@". This is happening in normal Windows console host window with...

    robocopy cancelling batch file processing

    Did you try wrapping ROBOCOPY in @exec?

    robocopy cancelling batch file processing

    Wrapping the ROBOCOPY calls in @exec[] finally fixed this problem for me. (The removal of CALL I wrote about earlier in the thread did not help after all)

    Speeding up the history dialog

    Maybe due to keyboard settings? I have repeat delay set to shortest and repeat rate to fastest in the (old) Control Panel. If I use the inverse settings the scrolling almost stops instantly.

    Speeding up the history dialog

    Thanks for the suggestion, I did not know these were still around! I see now that this option is documented, must have missed it before. Yes, this dialog is much faster, there's no perceivable delay when opening it. It misses a few features from the GUI dialog, but I hardly use those anyway so...

    Speeding up the history dialog

    I installed and measured how long it took to open the history dialog in TCC 27. Could see no difference, still took 4 seconds for the dialog to be populated and possible to interact with. The history code in general seems to be fast enough, it's just the dialog that is slow. Too bad, since...

    Speeding up the history dialog

    Hello, Is there some way to speed up the history dialog that is opened with PgUp/PgDn? At the moment it's taking about 3-4 seconds for the unfiltered dialog to be usable after pressing PgUp, which is quite an annoying delay when you just want to quickly check the last commands. I am using the...

    Differences between TCC and CMD with COPY /b

    Why not just keep using CMD in the COMSPEC variable? I don't see that you gain much by having TCC there instead. You can still use all TCC features and run scripts without it.

    Command line DO with no closing parenthesis?

    Sorry, I missed that it only happens with plugin functions and variables. Don't have any plugins myself.

    Command line DO with no closing parenthesis?

    With TCC 20.11.46 x64 I do not see that, always get an error for unclosed parenthesis.

    V File Viewer/Manager

    Works for me, but I have V aliased to VIEW. :)

    batch file ending early

    I had a similar problem, but for ROBOCOPY instead of RAR. I called ROBOCOPY via an environment variable like: %robocopyvar_with_params% This sometimes caused the batch file to just stop prematurely. Problems went away when I replaced that line with: echo %@exec[%robocopyvar_with_params%]...
