Support "size:1 234 567 890" search

[TeToTa]

Add the support for the size search if the size input string includes numbers separated by spaces.
It's very inconvenient to delete spaces when you copy and paste the file size from Window' Explorer file's properties.

"size:1 234 567 890" == "size:1234567890"

[void]

Space is the AND operator in Everything.

I'll look into supporting size:"1 234 567 890"

However, you'll need to use double quotes (") to escape the spaces.

Thank you for the suggestion.

1 234 567 890

Is there a particular place that you're getting a format like that from?
As in, maybe you can filter it to remove the spaces before throwing it into Everything?

> Where in Windows Explorer?
Oh.
Odd still. When I copy, if I simply double click, I'll get the opening paren, so "(10,458,559".
If I actually highlight, I get, "10,458,559"

Commas should not be an issue.
But how are spaces coming about?


(something like s/ //g)

(BTW:

Everything 1.5alpha allows you to search for a file name , & also copy its' size - bypassing Windows Explore .
[Right-click the file size as shown in Everything, Copy Size])

It's a locale setting.

Some locales use commas for grouping.
Some locales use spaces for grouping.



It's hard to support spaces, what if I wanted to find a file with 1 byte with the name containing 234?

size:1 234

(i realize this would be uncommon, so maybe eating the space is acceptable for this locale. Everything could use double spaces to break the parsing)

[void]

Consider changing the digit grouping symbol:

• From the Start menu, search for:
  region
• Click on Region settings.
• On the right, click on Additional date, time & regional settings.
• Click on Change date, time, or number formats.
• Click Additional Settings....
• Set a new digit grouping symbol, for example: '
• Click OK.

Never knew that.
I knew dots & commas or commas & dots, but never would I have imagined spaces.
Decimal separator


(Seems every time now I go to wikipedia, its layout gets worse & worse.
But, I guess that's par for the course, these days.)

Everything 1.5alpha allows you to ... copy its' size
[Right-click the file size as shown in Everything, Copy Size])

And what gets "copied" (parsed) in the space scenario?
"1 234 567 890" or "1234567890" ?

[void]

The size in bytes without digit grouping is copied.

For example:
1234567890

[void]

Everything 1.5.0.1347a adds support for parsing sizes with space when using double quotes.

For example:
size:"1 234 567"
