Change Log for the latest
XYplorer BETA version:
Code: Select all
v25.60.0111 - 2024-03-11 10:21
+ Native Variables | <pad ...>: Revised the syntax and added a way to pad the
first/last number in a string. The number padding is actually more of a command than
a variable, but the variable form makes it nicely usable in Batch Rename.
Syntax: <pad length [char] [flags]>
length: Final length of the padded string, or of the padded number within the
string (depends on the flags).
char: Character to pad with.
If missing it defaults to " " (space).
Note that strings longer than one character are supported, although it's
hard to see a good use for this.
flags: b = only work on the base of a filename (exclude the extension)
n = pad the first (left-most) number in the string
nr = pad the last (right-most) number in the string
Examples:
echo "ab<pad 12>cd"; //ab cd --> pad char defaults to space
echo "ab<pad 12 ->cd"; //ab--------cd
echo "ab<pad 12 xy>cd"; //abxyxyxyxycd --> works, but useful?
echo "<pad 8 0>98.mkv"; //0098.mkv
echo "<pad 8 0>64.mpeg"; //064.mpeg --> probably not wanted
echo "<pad 4 0 b>98.mkv"; //0098.mkv
echo "<pad 4 0 b>64.mpeg"; //0064.mpeg --> nice
echo "64<pad 4 0 b>.mpeg"; //6400.mpeg
Examples for number padding:
echo "<pad 4 0 n>Text 1."; //Text 0001.
echo "<pad 4 0 n>Text 12."; //Text 0012.
echo "<pad 4 0 n>Text 123."; //Text 0123.
echo "<pad 4 0 n>Text 12 34."; //Text 0012 34. --> first number is padded
echo "<pad 4 0 nr>Text 12 34."; //Text 12 0034. --> last number is padded
Examples of use in Batch Rename (note that the asterisk is necessary, though its
position is irrelevant):
- Pattern: <pad 4 0 n>* = (only the left-most number is padded)
