Hullo,

I've a mite of a problem. I modified my popup to my liking, and part of it involves the Litestep sub-menus.

As a replacement file manager, I'm using 2xExplorer, which I like. Got it wired up to my hotkeys (win+e) and the evars are correct.

However, this

*Popup "litestep" Folder
*Popup "litestep folder" !execute ["$FileManager$" /e, "$LiteStepDir$"]
*Popup "themes folder" !execute ["$FileManager$" /e, "$ThemesDir$"]
*Popup "this theme" !execute ["$Filemanager$" /e, "$ThemeDir$"]

doesn't want to work at all. I click "litestep folder" and 2xExplorer opens every time. But, every time, I get that stinkin' Windows "ding" and neither pane in the window has changed directories. Same with the other two. It just opens the manager, dings at me, and that's it. Just opens to the Desktop directory, with the file tree to the left reduced to a stump called "+Desktop".

Strange, no? Is this a problem with 2xExplorer not recognizing (or, for that matter, recognizing but not knowing what to do with) the command Litestep sends it? Or is there code I'm missing?

Again, the evars are correct--both to the folders and to the manager.

Thanks for any and all help :)

PS: Oh, btw--win2k pro sp4, latest LS release candidate, etc...

Remove the /e,

I was wondering about that but didn't think to mess with it since it was part of the code that came with the installer. Figgered, "Well that's there already, so chances are, it's supposed to be there, so I shouldn't mess with it for fear of screwing something up."

What's the /e mean?

It's a switch for explorer.exe. When /e is used it tells explorer to open the tree view on the left hand side.

That makes sense.

But it still doesn't work, unfortunately. Here's the code as it stands:



I still get the "ding" (stupid sound!) and one of the panes displays the desktop, while the tree is stuck at "+Desktop" as well.

What am I missing?
