4 windows is no problem, but how are you going to manage them? For example, if you want to synchronize the contents of two windows, how would you pick the two? How would you pick a target for "Copy To" commands? Too much complication there... You can have a second instance of 2xExplorer ru...

That's a good one that i didn't know (BTW, the url has an extra '.' in the end) Unfortunately on my NT4 at least, it opens the contents of zips etc in what it is known as <i>rooted namespace extension</i>, which for you and me means that a new explorer window pops up with the zip contents. I have se...

no 2x's synchronization logic requires same named files. So either rename one of the two :) or use something external like <b>winDiff</b> if you go for plan B, keep in mind the nice tricks 2x's address bar will allow for compiling commands to execute, especially so the <b>[Ctrl+Enter]</b> shortcut t...

ok, let's clarify this I didn't mean to right click on the desktop icon itself. Create a shortcut to 2x on your desktop (or wherever you find convenient) and right click on <i>that</i>. From the context menu select <b>Properties</b>. Look for the <b>shortcut</b> tab and there you'll find a <b>run</b...

no

at present the best it can do is dip into ZIP files, but you'll need winXP for that (or at least 2000 with zipfolders support). There are a couple of FAQs on this topic

sure thing just use the /S command line option to specify which registry key to use. So you can have /S:latex and /S:html (names don't matter) which will create two separate registry keys (Editor2latex & Editor2html respectively). Then you pretty much have 2 different programs, you can have tota...

2x does that for you automatically. You don't have to do anything now, if you are trying to fix the location of the editor/viewer window to some specific spot, you're out of luck since 2x will always use the last coords (wherever you moved/sized the viewer last) if you need more control, use the ext...

typical for windows, isn't it? They make a good job, then they leave a couple of small details out (like the sort by extension you mention) which make the whole "product" unusable in the long term, since it ends up hurting your tits ;) it wouldn't be easy for me to repair this glitch --- i...

well, i don't think that you can do any better than the present standard association procedure (what would i>you</i> want to see instead? -- i can't see much room for improvement) the only think i could add in the future is a menu item calling the standard association dialog directly within 2x, so a...

One of the sweetest things offered by 2xExplorer are these little things called wildcards (also known as filters, templates etc). Wildcards are shorthands for matching a range of strings or names. They are used all over the place in 2x, e.g. for selecting a subset of the files shown. Wildcards are c...

no you need to go the system way -- use Start | Folder options if you can't stand the regular explorer sight :). Another option would be to use the registry directly to edit the relevant key e.g. <b>HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\shell\open</b>, but I'd only recommend that to people with <i>substantial</...
