Is it possible to run a macro at Far startup, but before panel folders will be opened?
The problem: check saved panel path and change it if necessary, but before Far attempts to open it.

Run macro at startup but before opening panels
I guess this can help you
Code: Select all
Macro {
description = "Display date/time of Far invocation";
area = "Shell";
key = "";
flags = "RunAfterFARStart";
action = function()

-- Скрыть "вводимую" команду при старте FAR
-- Hide an "entered" command at starting of FAR
panel.GetUserScreen()
win.system("echo:Started Far3")
win.system("echo:[ %DATE% %TIME% ]")
panel.SetUserScreen()
end;
}

I've already tried RunAfterFARStart flag and such a macro runs after the panels are opened (GetUserScreen() just hides them).

The actual problem that I'd like to solve is slow Far startup if previous session ends up on opened network path (Network plugin, which i like) of currently unavailable host (Windows SMB timeout is about 30 seconds). I'd like to Far somehow save panel folders, but only for local drives.
