#DirOpus/Comment function

re: DirOpus
Grrr… ok, what am I doing wrong?
I want to change/add comments to DIRECTORIES. I click on the appropriate
directory names, make certain the "F" File sub-directory gadget is
un-highlighted, click "Comment" and type in a new comment string.
What happens? DirOpus starts changing the comments of EVERY file within
the directory as well as the just the directory. I don't want this!! I
want just the directory comment changed.
Yes, I read the manual, experimented, tried every combination I could
think of, but I cannot make this work.
Thanks in advance…

Hi David. To change the comment of a directory without changing the files
within it you need to set the filter to ~(*) Unfortunately in the current
version this will still cause it to scan through the entire directory (even
though it won't do anything to the files within it). I will make sure to do
something about this problem in the next version. In the mean time you can
either live with it, or set up a button to call the dos FileNote command.
