Path passed to external programs [TP3928]
« on: 2013-08-20 08:19:35 »
In a subject earlier Rainer Kasten already mention the problem of thumbsplus sending a quote before a filename but not after.

I had noticed the same issue but I also noticed something else:

When adding a program to use with 'open with' there is the following option:
- Pass folder name if no files are selected

When selecting this option there is no folder name passed as an argument to the external program in the case where no files are selected.

I used the following example batch file
REM %1
Pause

This works for filenames (with the wrong quoting) but not for folder names.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
