Search with file name lists

[eil]

Hello

Is there a way to search for files in xyplorer via file lists? For example, there are 50 file names in the list and the corresponding files
should then be searched for and listed in order to move or delete them.
Is something like this possible with xyplorer or with another tool.
I hope I explained it clearly.

I would be very grateful for any help or tips.

Just imagining how i'd do that with scripting:
- put file names in txt
- load it in variable and run X number of foreach separate searches
- if found put them in var and at the end dumb all found in txt/paper folder
= that would allow to do operations and having them shown all together, no matter how different their location is.

Convert your list to a string by replacing \r\n to ;.

Just load the list as a paper folder.

The list will always change different file names.

... and the corresponding files should then be searched for and listed in order to move or delete them.

Do your moving and deleting, then load the next list.

E.g. if you write your lists (.txt files) in this folder:
{xyplorer data path}\Paper

this would make it a bit easier...

Code: Select all

    $srcPath  = <xypaper>;
    $srcFiles = listfolder($srcPath, "*.txt", 1, <crlf>);
    $srcFile  = inputselect("Select file", $srcFiles, <crlf>, 1+32+2048+8192+16384, , 400, 600);
    paperfolder("Current", readfile($srcFile));
