Can CDJ remember the last-used Search when CDJ shuts down / restarts?
Or perhaps remember the last 'n' Searches in a drop-down list? I
usually select {(NOT KW = XMAS) AND (NOT KW = BOOK)}; my lazy fingers
don't like to work more than they have to. (:

each of the queries.

What a Fine Manual! If only I had read it... *sigh*
Well, it's -almost- what I want. (I know, I know, I'm never satisfied)
The buttons work fine... after a little futzing with the setup:
- The instructions inside the { } need to begin with CDJ:
- The example in the MAPS.TXT file for VCR:0 is the style to follow;
you can chain a number of instructions under one button
It would still be nice (: if the search just completed popped into
the search window on the screen.
Could the USER.BMP button bitmap be added to the list in OPTIONS /
FILES&DIRECTORIES, defaulting to the as-shipped default in the
CDJ.EXE directory? It would prevent overlays during upgrades.
And the buttons are nice for pre-defined searches that get used a lot
(I've added my 3 favorites), but it's a lot of work for a one-off
search that you might want again that day, but never again. I'd
still like the drop-down list of the last 'n' searches.
Is it possible to force the display to switch to the appropriate
SEARCH_MODE[DISC|TRACK] as a result of the last search executed from
a user button?
