Allow wildcard in path

Post by ahdung »

I hope can do this:
"abc folde*\"

to searching all thing who name contains "abc" and path contains "folde*"

Everything 1.5 will have support for "subpath" wildcard matching.

Thank you for the suggestion.



With subpath wildcard matching in Everything 1.5, folde*\ will match the path where any subpath starts with folde

For example:

c:\example\folder\file.txt



There will also be support for:

folde\\

which expands to:

folde*\**

but unlike folde*\, this will match anywhere in the path.

For example:

c:\example folder\file.txt
