custom application icons?

[leeoniya]

hello,

 

is it possible to choose a custom app icon? i have a lot of portable apps that are in .7z files and all appear as archives. would be pretty slick if you can choose custom icons (like Portable Start Menu).

 

thanks,

leon

I quite like the default icons actually .Makes it easy to see what type it is.

You can also add following custom column (File-Settings) to sort apps by their extension:

 

Name: File Extension

Variable: {file:ext}

Ooh, good idea, Tomorrow. Setting up an ext column now.

Yeah i've used it for a while now.Gives a very easy overview of what extensions my apps are using and since most other extensions exept .exe have the same icon then it looks good too.

 

Mostly tho it's useful for me as it groups extractable apps together such as .zip or .7z and allows me to check if extraction commands are ok or to update extraction commands for all of them.

 

Currently at 165 apps total.

...allows me to check if extraction commands are ok or to update extraction commands for all of them...

Do you mean by this that you can actually update those extraction commands "for all of them": all-at-once or one-by-one?

If you sort by the extension, you can quickly check each one in turn to ensure it uses the same preferred pattern.

<-- what shawn said and yes i meant one-by-one.
