c0thirty said: They're a weird grey area between symlinks and hard links and I'm not sure exactly what safety if any they offer over hard links.

I'd say you can't / shouldn't compare these, as hardlinks are different usage as symlinks.

I think so. Will go to verify.

You know that hardlinks *must* refer to the same disk partition they are in?

Don often said he doesn't like too much smartness.
For this situation the new logic seems to be negative
- though the general idea seemed to be fine.

Maybe it needs a bit polish, eg when the prev name is truncated, as described.

It seems you mean maximum, not minimum?

Wasn't it so that array() defines to not allow/support variables?

OK: aid; in each script (needing interpolation).

I thought about a wish for settingP aid 1; - but if it's only me...
(...I know what to do if a new script of mine starts to show *$varname )
...and in the end it's only a few.

(The end: I will be out now.)

You are right: I misinterpreted the dflt of AID as the general dflt of this setting! (Though the first chapter does explain it :oops: ) (But I must say: I liked it!) Before next misunderstanding: is AID only for the current script, or is it permanent? (As you don't mention a .ini-setting it seems to...

Thanks for the hint! It seems nothing changed for a new installation. That means: a new installation does not work with (all/some) old scripts. Bad for new users downloading old scripts :-( Wouldn't it be helpful to define AID as an operand of the SETTING command - so any old script could be made wo...

But be careful: this regards all *executable* lines... ... but <<<>>> begins a group of text lines (up to >>>) - so it must be: $destinations = <<<>>> D:\New Music Library\New Music Library 2020\Dance D:\New Music Library\New Music Library 2020\Country D:\New Music Library\New Music Library 2020\Cla...

...and in double quotes variables are resolved, so you can change: // $auditLog = "Copied: " + $item + " to: " + $target + "\n"; // can be changed to: $auditLog = "Copied: $item to: $target\n"; // for me this looks better! Only thing to look for: the character...

Just had a look at help:

Show the box to the left of the Status Bar: tick Window | Arrangement | Live Filter Box in Status Bar. Note that if the Address Bar is hidden then the LFB automatically goes to the Status Bar.

Does that look help?

1) Tested!
Will wait a bit before I delete the old/commented instructions

2) As long as there would be no ability to *prevent* recursive substitutions, I think it's OK that you didn't do it!

And once again: thanks!

...but:
as there is / there seems no way to disable it, you would never be able to prevent these multiple substitutions.
