Hello Friedrich,
when I work on an Installer, I mostly use the Script Editor. But before I get
there, I have to start, of course, and the most easy way to into it is to add
the stuff folderwise. However, my data-folder holds 100 TPS files and my
PDF-folder hold three folders with 200 PDF each. You guess it, my script is
very crowded from the begin.
My next step is then to replace all these hundreds of individual COPY
source\x.TPS to %APPLICATIONWHATEVER%\x.TPX to *.TPS and *.PDF etc. You get the
idea. Cleans the script enormously.
Well, sometimes I forget a file or an entire folder in the first step. Or a
project evolves before I started the clean-up. Like the need of a fourth
PDF-folder.
When I now add that new files or folder retroactively afterwards, it clutters
my script even more, but now I have multiple blocks of EXE, then TPS, PDF, EXE
again, now more PDF. You are still with me?
My suggestion now is to filter all lines for a specific verb, so I see only,
lets say PDF. Now I can easily highlight them all by Ctrl+A and comment them
out in one go, then add new line for copying *.PDF ... or whatever.
If you know DebugView++, then you may know this filtering, plus their ability
to colour lines based on conditions. (See attached image)
Weeeeelllll, _that_ would not be necessary. No. But I would not mind. <g>
But if you would dare to, then a switch like "Turn OFF all additional colors"
would be the cherry ontop of the icing of the cake.
Regards,
