[Help] How to create a bookmark macro for `exact:parent-name:`?

[TenTickles]

I know this is less trivial than a typical macro, but it still might be trivial. I've looked for a solution before and I didn't find one. Also, I'm sorry if this is not the correct board.

I want to define an alias `myalias:` for `exact:parent-name:`, that will allow me to use `myalias:Downloads` instead of `exact:parent-name:Downloads`.

Is there a way to do this? Even a hacky/indirect way to do it?

To create a bookmark macro for exact:parent-name:

• In Everything, from the Bookmarks menu, click Add to bookmarks....
• Change Name to: Exact Parent Name
  (can be anything you like)
• Change Search to:
  exact:parent-name:$param:
• Change Macro to: myalias
• Click OK.

myalias:foo will now expand to exact:parent-name:foo

Alternative solution:

• In Everything's search bar, type or paste the following

  Code: Select all

  /define myalias2=exact:parent-name:

• Press ENTER
• Done

myalias2:foo will now expand to exact:parent-name:foo



/define
/undef
