The following virtual folders are available for specification in the search folder list. Using them won't effect search speed and can keep your configuration valid even if you use a portable usb drive, etc.:
| · | %FARRUSERDATADIR% - Defaults to the MyLocalData directory in FARR path which is the recommended place to store user settings and user-modifiable files that should not be overwritten on farr updates. this can be customized by the user to be anyplace on drive. |
| · | %ALIASDIR% - When specifying alias commands you may occasionally want to refer to the home directory of the alias. |
| · | %PLUGINDIR% - Directory of currently triggered plugin. |
| · | %APPDRIVE% - Will be something like "C:" based on drive where findandrunrobot.exe was launched |
You can also use any windows Environmental variable which provides more replacements (see here), like %WINDIR%,%PATH%, etc.
Additionally the following variables can be retrieved and passed on the commandline by aliases (or queried by plugins):
| · | %LASTHWND% - integer value referring to the last window handle that had focus before FARR was triggered. |
| · | %LASTURL% - last url navigated or set in internal web browser |
| · | %LASTURLSET% - last url explicitly set by alias/plugin in web browser |
| · | %CUSTOMFILEBROWSER% - user configured custom file browser string |
| · | %CUSTOMWEBBROWSER% - user configured custom web browser string |
| · | %MAXRESULTS% - current number of max results to show in results, based on search |
| · | %MAXRESULTSDEF% - option set by user for default max results to show in results |
| · | %MAXRESULTSEXT% - option set by user for extended max results to show in results |
| · | %LASTWEBERRORS% - blank if no web script errors since last web page load, or text of errors. |
| · | %SEARCHBOX% - contents of current search box as shown. |
| · | %SEARCHSTRING% - current search string; may differ from search box based on alias dosearch manipulations. |
| · | %CURRENTRESULT% - currently selected result; useful for creating hotkeys that use it, etc.; blank if nothing selected |
| · | %CURRENTRESULTNB% - same as above, but = first result if nothing selected |
| · | %ALIASPREFIX% - optional alias prefix configured by user (this is useful to plugin writers in particular who need to set the search box contents. |
