+Allow forced evaluation of custom columns by prefixing the name with "!"

What is "name" referring to? The name of the column, the name of the variable used in the columns value?

Can the prefix be combined with a function e.g. "{!countSetup:ps}"?

[floele]

It's the name of the column.

Looks like something has changed with this beta, for example this powershell script does not work anymore (worked fine on previous versions):

 

$PortableAppsPath = [System.Environment]::ExpandEnvironmentVariables($GlobalVars.item('portable').cachedcontent)
$WShell = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell
$Executables = (Get-ChildItem (Join-Path $PortableAppsPath $App.Name) -Filter '*.exe' -Recurse)
if ($Executables.Count -gt 1) {
	$ShortCutPath = (Join-Path $([System.Environment]::ExpandEnvironmentVariables($GlobalVars.item('shortcuts').cachedcontent)) $App.Name)
	if (-Not(Test-Path $ShortCutPath -PathType Container)) {
		New-Item $ShortCutPath -ItemType Directory -Force
	}
} else {
	$ShortCutPath = [System.Environment]::ExpandEnvironmentVariables($GlobalVars.item('shortcuts').cachedcontent)
}
foreach ($Executable in $Executables) {
	$ShortCut = $WShell.CreateShortcut("$ShortCutPath\$($Executable.BaseName).lnk")
	$Shortcut.TargetPath = $Executable.FullName
	$Shortcut.WorkingDirectory = (Join-Path $PortableAppsPath $App.Name)
	$Shortcut.IconLocation = $Executable.FullName
	$Shortcut.Save()
}

It does not give any meaningful error either, simply throws: Script can not be executed. Value does not fall into expected range.

Are you sure it's actually related to the Ketarin update? There shouldn't be anything different with the new version in this regard.

What errors does Ketarin log show?

Tried the script with slight modifications, to account for assumption not met by my system, without issue.
Functional modifications : Finds executables in current app dir, rather than dir specified in "portable".
Tested as an app\job specific script, not global.

Global variable shortcuts = C:\

$PortableAppsPath = (Get-Item $app.CurrentLocation).DirectoryName
$WShell = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell
$Executables = Get-ChildItem (Get-Item $app.CurrentLocation).DirectoryName -Filter '*.exe' -Recurse
if ($Executables.Count -gt 1) {
    $ShortCutPath = Join-Path $globalvars.'shortcuts'.CachedContent $app.Name
    if (-Not(Test-Path $ShortCutPath -PathType Container)) {
        New-Item $ShortCutPath -ItemType Directory -Force
    }
} else {
    $ShortCutPath = Join-Path $globalvars.'shortcuts'.CachedContent $app.Name
}
foreach ($Executable in $Executables) {
    $ShortCut = $WShell.CreateShortcut("$ShortCutPath\$($Executable.BaseName).lnk")
    $Shortcut.TargetPath = $Executable.FullName
    $Shortcut.WorkingDirectory = (Join-Path $PortableAppsPath $App.Name)
    $Shortcut.IconLocation = $Executable.FullName
    $Shortcut.Save()
}

@Ambimind Log does not show any errors, it just refused to run by throwing popup message: Script can not be executed. Value does not fall into expected range.

@floele nevermind, looks like it was some kind of temporary issue, started to work by itself again. Probably something got screwed on my system.

[floele]

Now added beta 2. Will make this a final release if there are no complaints.

[shawn]

awesome! I feel like this release is all about my requests.  Thanks, @floele!

[Knightmare]

I'm excited for the new version!

[jokerfool]

Anything new in the pipeline?

[floele]

Didn't plan anything in particular yet. I'm going to check the UserEcho suggestions though for upcoming enhancements.

Looks like something changed on Filehippo as all downloads from there started to suddenly fail:

Steam    FileHippo ID 'steam' does not exist.
Origin    FileHippo ID 'origin' does not exist.
Acrylic Wi-Fi Home    FileHippo ID 'acrylic-wifi-home' does not exist.
Audacity    FileHippo ID 'audacity' does not exist.
WinSCP    FileHippo ID 'winscp' does not exist.
