(On the IrfanView end...)
You could do something like... select files in Everything, then send those file names (path+name) [via hotkey] to a batch file that parses the names & runs IrfanView.
Everything-slideshow.bat::: doing an "Export" this way, you will be limited by SHELL considerations (i think it is)
:: so maybe something ~8000 chars of exported data (& if longer, it simply fails).
:: that would be fullpathlengths up to ~8K
:: can you Export, through Everything, in an automated fashion?
:: $exec(Everything -export %* > c:\out\iLIST.TXT)
:: Keyboard -> File | Custom Open 1 ---> A+I
:: $exec("C:\BIN\Everythihng_slideshow" %*)
