source must be string

[Wacken]

Using the function: FileInstall ( "source", "dest" [, flag] )

I would to make an installer for multiple different but simmilar applications.

I would like to place the "source" paths and "dest" paths that go with it on top of the file.

However: "The source path of the file to compile. This must be a literal string; it cannot be a variable."

Is there no option in the compiler to make words that will be replaced by the string i provide with for word and can be used for this function?

I used this in CPP in the past, but i don't know the right word for it sort of constants that are replaced at compile time.

Well as stated it has to be a string... You may though write a little script by the side to help you write all the file installs

Sleep(5000)

;To target Scite

For $i = 0 To 10

Send('FileInstall("C:\MyDest\' & $i & '.exe", "C:\dest")' & @CRLF )

Yes but now I have the ultimate program to ALL ANSWERS

Be careful with that script Shevilie, line 40 should be Random(0,19). Not 20. If it hits 20, your program will crash with an array subscript error.

My bad The random should be

$i = Random(0,19,1)

Thanks to Smoke to clear out the integer
