Is there anything wrong with this script?

It seems running this script doesn't create the temp folder even though it should. What might be the reason?
Code: Select all
Set($cf,<curfolder>);
Set($cp,<curpath>);
Set($nn,<date yyyymmddhhnnss>);
OpenWith("""C:\program files\winrar\winrar.exe"" e -- *.rar * $nn-temp", "s");
Msg("Press OK when WinRAR is finished.",1);
GoTo("<curpath_s>\$nn-temp")
Sel(a);
Rename(bat,$cf);
Focus(L);
MoveTo("..\..");
#523;
#523;
Rename(bat,$nn,,"$cp");
SelFilter($nn, d, Name);
Focus(L);
#170;

I am not sure if Winrar can create $nn-temp for you here, therefore you can create it yourself before extracting something into it. Place this before openwith command:

Thank you very much, it has helped. Also, I forgot to add a semi-colon after
so that caused XY to fail to navigate to the wrong place

Fixed version based on suggestions:
(NOT TESTED!)
Code: Select all
Set($cf,<curfolder>);
Set($cp,<curpath>);
Set($nn,<date yyyymmddhhnnss>);
new "$nn-temp", dir;
OpenWith("""C:\program files\winrar\winrar.exe"" e -- *.rar * $nn-temp", "s");
Msg("Press OK when WinRAR is finished.",1);
GoTo("<curpath_s>\$nn-temp");

Sorry, but you seem to post all day long, and now you start to post UNTESTED scripts (or did you just start to tell us that your scripts are untested?). Please, keep the untested stuff at home. This is a public forum. Thanks.

That was the best I could do, Don.
Sorry if this hurts your feelings, too.

It was not about my feelings, it was rather the ultra-rational cerebral part of my soul that asked: Why would anybody publish an untested script in the script exchange section? Air code is crap most of the times.
It's simple: If you have something good: share it. If you have a question that you cannot answer yourself by studying the Help and other sources, by trying, by thinking, and whose answer will be interesting to other users: ask it.
Simply increasing the forum byte count by repeating old and non-revised posts in a new order is no so good IMO. There's a well structured place to put valuable info about XY: the XYwiki.

Unfortunately the wiki has been down for last few days...I sent a PM to jacky about it on the 4th but it's not yet been read...I also just sent email to him today...I think the wiki may need to be relocated to under your control to avoid this issue.

But... it's your party, right?

I'm sorry.
For reference,
