Nestable Custom File Associations?

Post by Dustydog »

Know I could use a nestable pop-up, and of course it filters by extension, but this feature is so blasted handy for little command line utilities, scripts, and external program launching I've been going a little crazy lately. I'm not big on many custom shortcuts. Plus, all your other menus seem nestable.

***

My most recent favorite has been using Image Magick for various things. Example, to make yourself an album picture of reasonable size, this is lovely:

|"Convert to 500x500" jpg;png;tif;tiff>::run "magick convert ""<curitem>"" -resize 500x500 -unsharp 1.5x1+0.7+0.02 ""<curbase>_sm.jpg"""

Or to go to a higher resolution:

|"Convert to 1200x1200" jpg;png;tif;tiff>::run "magick convert ""<curitem>"" -colorspace RGB +sigmoidal-contrast 6.5,50% -filter Lanczos -distort resize 1200x1200 -sigmoidal-contrast 6.5,50% -colorspace sRGB -unsharp 1.5x1+0.7+0.02 ""<curbase>_lgr.jpg"""

Beats the heck out of Photoshop for handy and quick. And the results are excellent.

Thank you for the feature!

I use something similar for IrfanView:

Code: Select all

|"IrfanView /resize_long=2000" jpg>::run """C:\Program Files (x86)\IrfanView\i_view32.exe"" <pfaitems> ""/resize_long=2000 /aspectratio /resample /convert=$N_sml$O /makecopy"""
