Delphi experts: How to get the commandline search results in Delphi?

Post by PeterPanino »

When doing a COMMANDLINE SEARCH, for example:

"C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe" -filter Everything -search *.dpr

...how can I get the list of search results into a Delphi TMemo?

(I don't know Delphi, but if TMemo can accept data from a pipe... you could use ES Command Line Interface.)

Code: Select all

es.exe  ncmain.exe  |  clip.exe
es.exe  ncmain.exe  |  TMemo
es.exe  ncmain.exe  >  tmp_file.txt

Thanks, the ES command-line interface works very well.

If the end-user has not Everything installed: Is there a service-only version that can be automatically installed if no Everything installation is detected?

Everything needs to be installed for ES and the SDK.
