When you drag a directory with the Select button and Ctrl key pressed to StrongED's iconbar icon, it opens a window allowing you to select which files to load.
The syntax of the Pattern field is:
<list of filetypes> , <filename patterns to match>
Filetypes must be specified as 3-digit hex numbers, eg FFF for text, FAF for html, FEB for BASIC etc. If you want to load more than one filetype, each hex number must be separated from the next by a space.
The default * will accept all filetypes.
The patterns to match are the same as those in ModeWhen files and are used to match filenames. ROOL's list of filetypes.
Two wildcards are supported * and **
The search will recurse into any subdirectories unless you specify otherwise. To do that, specify the top directory's name in the search pattern. So for all text files in directory Dir you would put FFF,**.Dir.*
Load all .html files | FAF, **.*html |
Load all text files ending inc | FFF, **.+*inc |
Load all text files with fred in the name | FFF, **.*fred* |
Load all text files named StrongEd | FFF,**.StrongEd |
