Chapter 10. Plugins
How to create .link files
You can use your favourite text editor to create a .link file on the PC an then copy
the file to the player. Or you can use the context menu on either a file or a directory in
the file browser tree, and use the "Add to shortcuts" menu option. This will append a
line with the full name of the file or the directory to the shortcuts.link file in the root
directory of the player. (The file will be created if it does not exist yet.) You can later
rename the automatically created shortcuts.link file or move it to another directory
if you wish. Subsequent calls of the context menu will create it again.
How to use .link files, i.e. jump to desired places
To use a .link file just "play" it from the file browser. This will show you a list with the
entries in the file. Selecting one of them will then exit the plugin and leave you within
the directory selected, or with the file selected in the file browser. You can then play
the file or do with it whatever you want. The file will not be "played" automatically.
If the .link file contains only one entry no list will be shown, you will directly jump
to that location. The file shortcuts.link in the root directory is an exception. After
"playing" it, the list will be shown even if the file contains just one entry.
If the list you are seeing is from shortcuts.link in the root directory, you can delete
the selected entry by pressing Menu. Deleting entries from other .link files is not
possible.
Advanced Usage
Placing the line "#Display last path segments=n" (where n is a number) in the beginning
of a .link file will leave just the last n segments of the entries when they are shown. For
example, if n is chosen to be 1, then the entry /MyMusic/collection/song.mp3 will be
shown as song.mp3. This allows you to hide common path prefixes.
You can also provide a custom display name for each entry individually. To do so,
append a tabulator character after the entry's path followed by your custom name. That
name will then be used for showing the entry. For example:
/MyMusic/collection/song.mp3<TAB>My favourite song!

10.3.2. Search

This plugin can be used on playlists. It searches through the playlist that it opened on
looking for any occurrences of the string entered by the user. The results of this search
are saved to a new playlist, search_results.m3u, within the same directory as the
original playlist.

10.3.3. Shopper

Shopper is a shopping list plugin which allows you to maintain reusable shopping lists.
