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.

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));

Führen Sie das Verschieben und Löschen durch und laden Sie dann die nächste Liste.
Yes, that's what I thought

How exactly do I use the code?

E.g. add a toolbar button ("User button #...") and paste the script for the on left click event (press the Edit... button on the right side of it in the config window for that button)
