Command-line options?

I was just having a squiz here: http://www.den4b.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=120

What I'd like to do with a shortcut is:
Open ReNamer, listing only a certain type of file, in a specified folder (not it's subfolders, probably by default), using preset rule(s), with Preview already showing.  (specific much? neutral)

Double clicking said shortcut would give the following; Visual explanation:
ReNamer%20EG.jpg


I'm not sure if I'm using the command-line options incorrectly, but trying to get part of this result, I've used:
"C:\Program Files\ReNamer\ReNamer.exe" G:\WIP\ren\*.avi /load "C:\Program Files\ReNamer\Presets\Rename RAGE playlist titled avi files.rnp"

but I get the impression you can only pass one command-line parameter.

If that's the case, then this is one for the suggestion list smile

Re: Command-line options?

Yes, Yes, and Yes - to the suggestions list! smile

This is on the roadmap, and will be implemented eventually. It is 100% needed feature! Unfortunately, the only one problem now is the luck of free time. So I put all these good ideas on the TODO list, and will implement them as soon as I get some time. At the moment, program accepts only 1 special parameter (/load , /enqueue , uninstall) at a time. And file masks are not expanded, every entry is processed is a full path to the file or folder.

Re: Command-line options?

This feature has been implemented. Here is the sample call:

"C:\Program Files\ReNamer\ReNamer.exe" /preset "MyRulesPreset" "D:\Pictures\*.jpg"

Note: the /preset parameter must come first.

You are cooking with relevant updates!  big_smile

Is there a mailing list for new update alerts, a specific post to subscribe to, a web page to monitor??

Thanks,
Fathom

Re: Command-line options?

Just to update:

Latest development version of 01 July 2007 has a new command line parameter to rename files without user interaction. Release after this date will also have this feature. Find more information in the "Command Line" section of the help documents.

Re: Command-line options?

Hi,

I was playing with Renamer.exe command line parameters for a few hs with no luck. roll

Seems like I can only pass one command-line parameter at the time (as mention above)

I know is on the todo list, in the mean time, may be we should state it on the manual.

I also noticed that If I run:

Run, %E_MENU_FOLDER_PC_SOFT%\%SOFT_RENAMER_FOLDER%\renamer.exe /preset "%E_MENU_FOLDER_PC_SOFT%\%SOFT_RENAMER_FOLDER%\Presets\TM~Proper Case.rnp"

Beeing:
%E_MENU_FOLDER_PC_SOFT%\%SOFT_RENAMER_FOLDER%\
The renamer folder path

I always get a new instance of renamer with that filter loaded.

How Can I change the filter of an already open Renamer.exe instance like "/enqueue" works with files

Cheers, Yogui.

Re: Command-line options?

Command line options are incompatible between each other, and only 1 parameter is handled at a time.

I am afraid there is no way to change the preset of the currently running instance of ReNamer.

Re: Command-line options?

Hi Denis,

Thanks for your reply.

I found a work around that I been using for a few weeks now.

1st I load the filter then enueque the files. (not a big deal tongue)

Thanks! for the command line options I love them. big_smile

Cheers, Yogui.
