Select filter settings from the command line or in a SendTo shortcut

Hi all,
I have go a newbie question..
I would like to know whether it is possible to provide command line or SendTo shortcut parameters to ReName.exe so that one could choose what specific filter settings to apply to the current task only (for example, one could right-click on a folder, send it to "Rename (folders)" to rename the folders themselves, or send the folder to "Rename (files)" to rename the files contained in the folder.
Thanks and cheers,
Dario

Re: Select filter settings from the command line or in a SendTo shortcut

At the moment there are no command line parameters which let you choose which filters to use. But, you can create several copies of ReNamer.exe in the same folder, and each one of them will use its own INI file, but they will still share the same Presets, Translits, Scripts and Help files.

For example: copy ReNamer.exe to ReNamer-Folders.exe, open it, change the filters and close. It will create ReNamer-Folders.ini. Now you can use shortcut to ReNamer-Folders.exe in the SendTo menu for your folders.
