stdout support

Post by ToresVN »

It would be pretty nice to support "stdout" in Everything! Is it possible in near feature?
I need a little more command line argument!

For example:
I can use CreateProcess() to call Everything and ask to connect to the other computer that ETP server is enabled. Then receive the query of the location of something like "abc01234.bin" through pipe (stdout of Everything). Thus I can have my program doing something automatically. "stdout" is one of the candidates, outputing a physical text file is nice, too!

(In PC1) I plan to collect specific files generated daily by the other (automatic) programs that I can not modify. These files may be moved here and there for the reason for editing or file management since these files are absolutely unique in filename. A list of these files can be made with filename (not includes path). After all work done I want to do something (such as transcoding) to them using automatic programs I compiled in PC2. So the problem comes: the program in PC2 does not know where the files are. And it is not easy to query PC1 with *perfect* efficiency like Everything. I'll be so appreciated if this feature is enabled!
