i register my file extension in windows with "ftype" and "assoc", this works. now i have the bad looking default icon, how can i change this icon??
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.[extension] default key contains a REG_SZ string, that is the name of the next key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\[that_string]\DefaultIcon default key ("#") contains this:
[path_to_icon_file],[zero_based_index]
Example:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt
#="MyTextFile"
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MyTextFile\DefaultIcon
#="C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe,2"
This way, all .txt files will use the third icon from the Explorer executable.

So I need to create a script that will delete our Safari extension product.
The problem is that sometimes the File name is changing
and I cant just delete all .EXTZ
Files from the Extension Folder.
So I thought maybe to look inside the Extension.Plist and see in the "installed extension key my extension sub key with the installed file name (see screenshot)
Then Delete the file With the exact name in the extension folder.
I Couldn't figure out how to do it
Can Someone help ?
If you guys a better idea how to remove the extension it'll be nice!
The Screenshot of the Plist file :
Applescript has built in support for reading plist files in "System Events". You can use it to pull out the Archive File Name.
tell application "System Events"
tell property list file "File Path to plist file here"
set plistValue to value of property list item "Installed Extensions"
set plistFirstItem to item 1 of plistValue
set archiveFileName to |archive file name| of plistFirstItem
return archiveFileName
end tell
end tell
This should return the string in that property. You can then delete the file with that name in the extensions folder.
How to (easily) get current file path in Sublime Text 3
I don't often use ST console (I used it only once to install package manager), but I suppose it could be good way to :
get current file path like some kind pwd command.
But it doesn't work.
Does anyone know an easy way to get current file path?
to clipboard : better not a strict objective in the answer
not necessary by ST command, maybe package?
Right click somewhere in the file (not on the title tab) --> Copy file path
If you don't want to use the mouse, you could set up a keyboard shortcut as explained here https://superuser.com/questions/636057/how-to-set-shortcut-for-copy-file-path-in-sublime-text-3
To easily copy the current file path, add the following to Key Bindings - User:
{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+c"], "command": "copy_path" },
Source
Key Bindings - User can be opened via the command palette (command + p on OSX)
Easy to understand using image. On Right Click you will get this.
Transcribed code in image for convenience:
import sublime, sublime_plugin, os
class CopyFilenameCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
def run(self, edit):
if len(self.view.file_name()) > 0:
filename = os.path.split(self.view.file_name())[1]
sublime.set_clipboard(filename)
sublime.status_message("Copied file name: %s" % filename)
def is_enabled(self):
return self.view.file_name()... # can't see
Mac OS X - Sublime Text 3
Right click > Copy File Path
A lot of these answers involve touching the mouse. Here's how to do get the path without any mouse clicks using SideBarEnhancements
Install SideBarEnhancements using PackageControl.
Click super + shift + P to open the command palette
In the command palette begin typing path until you see File: Copy Path
Select File: Copy Path
Now the path to file you are working in is copied into your clipboard.
There is a Sublime Package which gives your current file location inside a status bar. I just cloned them directly to my /sublime-text-3/Packages folder.
git clone git#github.com:shagabutdinov/sublime-shell-status.git ShellStatus;
git clone git#github.com:shagabutdinov/sublime-status-message.git StatusMessage;
You have to check/read the description on GitHub. Even it is listed in package control it would not install properly for me. You can actually edit the shell output as you want. If you have the right skills with python/shell.
Looks like this (Material Theme)
If you're like me and always click on items in the sidebar just to realize that copying the path only works when clicking in the editor area, have a look at the SideBarEnhancements package. It has a huge bunch of options to copy file paths in a variety of different ways.
Installation is available via Package Control (despite the webpage only mentions installation via manual download).
Note: The package “sends basic, anonymous statistics”. The webpage explains how to opt out from that.
Go to this link. The code in the link is given by robertcollier4.
Create a file named CpoyFileName.py or whatever you like with .py extension.
Save the file in Sublime Text 3\Packages\User folder. Then paste the above given key bindings in your Preferences: Key Bindings file.
Now, you can use the specified key bindings to copy just filename or total (absolute) filepath.
Please note that the filename or filepath do contain file extension.
Fastest Solution ( No Packages Needed + Comprehensive ):
Folder Path:
Folder in "Sidebar"
Right Click
"Find In Folder"
"Where" field contains everything you need
File Path:
File in current "Tab"
Right Click
"Copy File Path"
I am trying to add a Windows Context Menu item that will let me right click a file in Windows Explorer and click a button Open in Dev Server.
This will then pass the file path of the selected file to a Windows .bat file.
In my .bat file openLocalHostWebBrowser.bat so far I have this code below which wehn ran opens a new tab in my web browser with the supplied URL.
#echo off
start "webpage name" "http://someurl.com/"
So I need help. I know how to add the context menu in Windows Explorer that will run my openLocalHostWebBrowser.bat file when clicked on.
What I need help with is taking that file path that is passed and changing it by removing part of the front of it and prepending my localhost or any URL for that matter, perhaps another one for a production server.
So if the file path passed to my .bat file is like this...
E:\Server\htdocs\labs\php\testProject\test.php
then I need to somehow turn it into this...
http://localhost/labs/php/testProject/test.php
The E:\Server\htdocs\ should be replaced with http://localhost/
I believe your requirement is fixed (E:\Server\htdocs\ should be replaced with http://localhost/). If so, below may help you.
#echo off
set input=%1
Echo.Input was - %input%
set converted=%input:E:\server\htdocs\=http://localhost/%
set converted=%converted:\=/%
echo.Converted to - %converted%
Sample tested output -
D:\Scripts>repl.bat E:\Server\htdocs\labs\php\testProject\test.php
Input was - E:\Server\htdocs\labs\php\testProject\test.php
Converted to - http://localhost/labs/php/testProject/test.php

I try to create "Save as..." dialog in Mac OS X. But I don't want to use QFileDialog::getSaveFileName() function, because dialog that created by this function is NOT truly-native in Mac OS X Lion. So I decide to create dialog as QFileDialog object:
auto export_dialog( new QFileDialog( main_window ) );
export_dialog->setWindowModality( Qt::WindowModal );
export_dialog->setFileMode( QFileDialog::AnyFile );
export_dialog->setAcceptMode( QFileDialog::AcceptSave );
All works fine, except one problem. I cannot set default name for saved file, so user must type this name manually every time. I know that function QFileDialog::getSaveFileName() allows to set default filename via third argument, dir (http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qfiledialog.html#getSaveFileName). But how to set this default name without this function?
I can set default suffix for saved file via QFileDialog::setDefaultSuffix() function, but I need to set whole default name, not only default suffix.
I've tried to use QFileDialog::setDirectory() function, but it sets only directory where to save, without name of saved file.
I use Qt 4.8.1 on Mac OS X Lion.
I have found that using selectFile("myFileName"); only works if the file actually exists. In my case, the intent is to create a new file with the option of overwriting an existing file.
The solution that worked for me (Qt 5.3.2) was as follows:
QFileDialog svDlg;
QString saveFileName = svDlg.getSaveFileName(this, caption, preferredName, filter);
In the above example, preferredName is a QString that contains "C:/pre-selected-name.txt"
Restating what was in the comments for future visitors, the following line puts "myFileName" as the default name in the QFileDialog:
export_dialog->selectFile("myFileName");
Discussion: http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/49434-QFileDialog-set-default-name?highlight=QFileDialog
Not-so-helpful docs: http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qfiledialog.html#selectFile
QString dir = QDir::homePath();
QString name = "test.txt";
QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(nullptr, tr("save file"), dir + "/" + name, tr("TXT (*.txt)"));
If you set "dir" argument, and dir is "file"(exist or not), in windows you will have default name.
With the current QT-version (5.x) you can set your preferred file-name with the argument directory in the QFileDialog.getSaveFileName() function call:
QFileDialog.getSaveFileName( directory = 'preferredFileName.txt' )
docs: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qfiledialog.html#getSaveFileName
Is there a way to set a default document type when saving a NEW FILE?
I created several new files and I want to have a default value of .txt when saving a NEW FILE.
Create a new plugin Tools > Developer > New Plugin...
Paste this in:
import sublime, sublime_plugin
class EverythingIsPowerShell(sublime_plugin.EventListener):
def on_new(self, view):
view.set_syntax_file('Packages/PowerShell/Support/PowershellSyntax.tmLanguage')
Save and call it NewTabSyntax.py. New tabs will now default to Powershell.
You can change the syntax to whatever you prefer. To find out the "path" of a particular syntax, simply open a file of that syntax, open the console (View > Show Console) and type:
view.settings().get('syntax')
This plugin does it:
https://github.com/spadgos/sublime-DefaultFileType
seems pretty great.
Edit:
Ok, two things, there currently seems to be a small bug so the text file syntax is not being correctly picked up due to the whitespace in the filename. In addition you need to set the "use_current_file_syntax" to false, (otherwise the new file will default to whatever filetype you have open already when you hit Ctrl-N)... So the fix/workaround is this:
Put the following code in: Packages/User/default_file_type.sublime-settings
{ "default_new_file_syntax": "Packages/Text/Plain_text.tmLanguage",
"use_current_file_syntax": false }
NOTE THE UNDERSCORE.
Next, find the "Plain text.tmLanguage" file and copy and rename it (in the same folder) as "Plain_text.tmLanguage". [be sure to copy/duplicate it, do not just rename it, as it may have dependancies]
Restart, just to be sure, and this should do the trick.
Also note this plugin only works for new files created with Ctrl-N.
Working after these steps:
1.Uninstalled
2.Installed using Package Control
3.Test using default install (type Jave) <-- worked
4.Copy and Renamed file Sublime Text 2\Packages\Text\Plain text.tmLanguage > Sublime Text 2\Packages\Text\Plain_text.tmLanguage
5.Changed file Sublime Text 2\Packages\Default File Type\default_file_type.sublime-settings >
`{ "default_new_file_syntax": "Packages/Text/Plain_text.tmLanguage", "use_current_file_syntax": true }`
-- All working.
I did not need to copy any files into the 'Packages/User' folder
