Inverted cursor please please!

I recently moved to WinSCP from paid version of Total Commander because Mr Ghisler won't implement connection retry when dropped and few other things which bugs me forever, but there is however few things which i badly miss...

First is that i cannot specify that file cursor cannot be inverted like Total Commander selected file is only framed and that is barely to see.

Second, not so important, Ctrl+C Ctrl+V dont works as in explorer, it needs to copy paste files, not compare.

Third, last, least important. F3 won't preview file. Only edit works. For quick view i would love to have it. I didnt find a way to specify macro either to do it by my own, but if one can specify key macros, that would help too.


I swear i will donate when both are done, because it is better than TC and i plan to use it exclusively and also know how is to live from support over net. :-)
Thanks a lot!!

I'm not a fan of introducing non-standard behaviour/display.

This request has been added to tracker.

What's a difference? Why do you think that F3 would be faster?

Martin,

it is not non standard. When in explorer You using keyboard, also the text is with fully highlighted background. Not inverted like TC, but anyway with dark background and light text. It helps a lot

thanks for second

because i use for editor PSPad (because of highlighting -- do all nice tools comes from Tschechien?) and it starts slower than your editor. So for quickview i would use yours, for editing PSPad.

please please...

That's something different. The dark background in Explorer is not selection, not for focus. In Explorer selection moves by default with focus. In WinSCP and TC is does not by default. Note that if you force focus to be moved without changing selecting in Explorer (by holding down Ctrl key while pressing arrow key) you will get the same results as in WinSCP. BTW, You can switch to Explorer style behavior (move selection with focus) in WinSCP preferences.

You can have more editors configured in WinSCP.

WOW i completely didnt understood what it does. yes it does what i need :-)), thank You...!

yes I know, but how i can single key (f3) configure it? I found only how to configure it for specific extensions?

WinSCP does not support key mapping.

ok but that was only small issue, I am happy now. Now if that Ctrl+C and V would work and i can forget TC alltogether :-). I puted the PSpad to RAMdisk and it seems to be good enough for quick start. Will try to convince Mr Fiala to implement some tray icon which would make PSpad start faster.
