I'm new to Litestep and currently installed the Singularity Theme. I am trying to get the Games/Applications shortcuts to actually display somthing. It says in the readme that you have to edit the ThemeVars.rc. In that file it has this written:

Dir-Games "$CommonPrograms$games|$Programs$games"

My question is which folder is this? Would it be C:CommonPrograms/games/programs/games? Because I am trying to specify my own folder but don't understand how I should write it. I read in another thread that something like this cannot be done on Windows Xp, which is what I am currently using with SP2.

Must have quotes.

there is a pipe in there... why is that? anyone?

That's the games folder under
A:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\
and the same one for your user. In Popup2 and xPopup, the pipe combines the listing, so you get the same effect as the start menu.

For a single folder, xcal's solution will work (you probably don't want a hyphen in the name, though, because LS may interpret that as a math operation).

Since it is space-delimeted, you need the quotes so that it will not get separated into multiple words. IE:

will set myvar to "c:\program". Putting quotes around the path will make the whole path be read as a single word.

The pipe is for defining multiple folders to be displayed, like (the var is optional, of course):

nudity "c:\naked pictures\of fractal\|c:\naked pictures\of cerbie\"

*Popup "Nude pictures" !DynamicFolder:"$nudity$"

Then the popup will display my naked pics folders of both you and cerbie in one popup.

Then where would this folder be located?

Dir-Shortcuts "$QuickLaunch$"

I have looked in Documents and Settings and can't find it. I also did a search.

ok, yeah I didnt know it was a var for a popup to use ;)

xcal: That example is creepy, really... (how weird is it we both have naked pics of cerbie! :o)

Hehe@fractal

M@lew: Hold ctrl+shift and press F1. Your answer is there.

ctrl+shift+F1. Now there's a nifty shortcut.

To find it, try this a command line (if you're using a theme w/o a command line, add one :)):
