syntax issues

Post by Xen »

Hello!

I've recently found everything, following a recommendation I read somewhere.

I find it fast, typing in the search bar brings up results very fast.

Would like to search by size; one drive is filled up when I don't see much on it, and I'd like to search it for large files, or several different searches for different sizes.

I've read the syntax help, and observed the filter options.

How do we put the syntax together? I mean, there is a list of syntax for functions, wildcard, etc, but in what order and in what way are they placed?

This worked:

e:\* size:huge


Now I loved programming in my college days so I have a concept of basic logic, and I beat the boys at programming tests and challenges. I also came to computing when windows was a novelty and we started off with DOS (showing my age).. so command line is familiar, though rusty.

I don't have time to experiment and figure it out, so please put in a couple of sample commands that include all the types: functions, attributes, modifiers, macros, etc, so I get the syntax order, braces, brackets, etc to be used when specifying multiple commands/variables/conditions for a search.

Thanks!

Hi,

Thanks, therube, for posting that link. Will check out WizTree.

In the meantime, would still be nice to get a few sample commands so I can string together complex commands on everything..

just need to know the order and placement when using the various command options... a couple of examples would be great...
