Files Marked In Explorer

[wolkenloser]

Hi,

I will to do something with files (selected in explorerwindow) by using the right-click-context-menue for using in an Autoitscript (eg. convert files).

How do I get the filenames into my script ?

Have anyone an idea ?

Ok, my english is not so good.

I will try ist again.

1.)

I open the windows explorer and select one file.

Now I want to get the path and filename of this selected file.

2.)

I open the windows explorer and select more then one files.

Now I want to get the path and filenames of the selected files.

I hope you know what I mean.

:-)

Hi,

that's right, but so I have to open an Autoitscript before I seclect the files,

But the next step after selecting, should be start an Autoitscript by rightklick in the windows explorer Context menue.

I won´t start a autoitscript before, but after right klick in the Contextmenue.

This example will do 1 file being sent to your compiled converter.

; Check for known incoming parameters
If $CMDLINE[0] Then
    Select
        Case $CMDLINE[1] = '/register'
            RegWrite('HKCU\Software\Classes\*\shell\Convert File\Command', '', 'Reg_sz', '"' & @ScriptFullPath & '" "%1"')
            MsgBox(0, @ScriptName, 'Registered with Shell')
            Exit
        Case $CMDLINE[1] = '/unregister'
            RegDelete('HKCU\Software\Classes\*\shell\Convert File')
            MsgBox(0, @ScriptName, 'UnRegistered with Shell')
            Exit
    EndSelect
Else
    Exit 1
EndIf

; Show parameter selected in explorer
MsgBox(0, 'Convert File', 'Commandline = ' & $CMDLINE[1])

Exit

; Prevent 2nd instance
Func OnAutoItStart()
    If UBound(ProcessList(@ScriptName)) > 2 Then Exit
EndFunc

Use CompiledName.exe /register to add to registry.

Use CompiledName.exe /unregister to remove from registry.

....

With this, you opend my eyes. But now, I decide to go another way.

Now, I know if I using "drag & drop" to an CompiledName.exe within the CompiledName.exe can use the filenames by an ARRAY ($CMDLINE).

This is an Programmfeature whitch I don´t know before. Now I can write a loop to "convert" my dropped files - It's working.

Her a simple eg.

#include <Array.au3>
_ArrayDisplay($CMDLINE,"")

If I copied the CompiledName.exe into the "SEND TO" dir of the current Windows Userprofile, I can "send" selected Files by using the "SEND TO" commant in the windows-explorer-right-click-context-menue.

Do you know how i can "registed" ist, so I'll become a direct entry in the windows-explorer-rigt-click-context-menue ?
