Is it possible to show the content of offline files, e.g. txt files when the content is indexed?

Is it possible to show the content (in the "Preview" panel) of offline files, e.g. txt files, when the content (e.g. of txt files) is indexed?

[void]

No.

I will consider an option to preview the indexed text/plain content.

Thank you for the suggestion.

[Biff]

Many thanks!

No.

It is a long shot, but: would you consider adding such option for previewing for text-based ones, which file formats of interest user could define; starting with TXT and BAT, PS1, VBS, AHK etc.?

A second database could be created to store them [and this option should be by default turned off so to not drain user's resources]

[void]

I am considering an option to do this for text/plain files.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Thank you very much!

But how would one tackle the issue of plain text files having different encoding pages? I mean: the database itself could not be plain text, right?

[void]

The Everything database stores content as text/plain.

If previewing offline content ever becomes an option, the preview would be in text/plain only.

Oh, now I get it


The fact that in a TXT file for example the

Code: Select all

█

sign seen in Unicode as an a filled rectangle but seen as

Code: Select all

-

in ANSI does not mean that I will not find it when I will search for

Code: Select all

█

while having ANSI page-coded files


Well, I am not a coder, hence my [stupid] question I posted
