Hello,
these are actually 3 related functionalities I don't see in BRU (3.4.4)
What am I looking for : There are a couple of files for which i'd like to change the file attributes "automatically". With automatically i mean that i make a link(shortcut) or .BAT file. I activate (double-click) the link or .BAT file and all files are processed
Long explanation :
- There is a folder (c:\data\pictures\) with actually 6 files, and i'd like to reset the file attributes of all the files but 2.
- I can save and reuse a .bru file e.g "c:\prog\bru344\Bulk Rename Utility.exe" attrib_reset.bru with the new attributes configured
- I can make and import a "import rename-pairs" file e.g. "attributes_to_be_reset.txt"
Problems :
- Problem 1 : When i import the files through import rename-pairs, I can import a list from repair-pairs. I see the information "Rename Pairs imported" but none of the files are highlighted in order to be processed. Question : How can I say "automatically select/highlight the files in the list as the files that have to be processed".
- Problem 2 : When running BRU on the command line (.BAT file or shortcut), i cannot add the rename-pairs file". I'd like to be able to give the following command (or analog) : "c:\prog\bru344\Bulk Rename Utility.exe" attrib_reset.bru /f:attributes_to_be_reset.txt
- Problem 3 : how can I make a rename-pairs files that is equivalent to "all files in the folder except the mentionned files". A format of this file could be (using the minus as to list the files that do not have to be processed)
*.*
- do_not_process_me.ini
- also_dont_process_me.exe
Is there a way to do these 3 things ?
