You can use the %Open(...)% macro to
open documents, folders, launch favorite programs or quickly open
required web-pages.
Usage
Macro body is a string of parameters in a special format
enclosed in brackets. Parameters must be separated with the "|"
character. You can specify up to 5 parameters:
Parameter string format:
%Open(Target|Operation|Parameters|Run|StartIn)%
- Taget - Specifies what to run - path to a
file, folder, web-page or application to launch.
- Operation - Specifies the action to perform.
Standard actions are Open, Explore, Edit, Print, Find.
- Parameters - You can specify command line
parameters if the application requires.
- Run - Specifies the way to run the
application: in the normal (1), minimized (2) or maximized (3)
window.
- StartIn - specifies the program current
directory. This parameter cannot be specified in the macro create
dialog, but you can always specify it manually.
All parameters except the first are optional.
Note: if your string ends with the "\"
character, you must insert a space before it, otherwise the text
will be simply pasted into the application. This is because of the
fact that the "\)%" string is used to insert the ")%" string into
the macro body.
