I had to create a bunch of folders. (64 actually) And I looked for something to help me do it,-Renegade (February 16, 2011, 09:07 AM)

My file managers help me here...


...or just an batch:

If you have an list of folder names:

--- Code: Text ---@ECHO OFFMD "X:\path\to\Folder01"MD "X:\path\to\Folder30"MD "X:\path\to\Folder64"

or if you just want to create some serialized folders:

--- Code: Text ---@ECHO OFFSET myFolderName=new_Folderset /p "myAmount=How many folders do you want to create?"for /l %%i in (1,1,%myAmount%) do (MD %myFolderName%_%%i >NUL)new_Folder_1
new_Folder_2
new_Folder_3

And BTW this is for files:
--- Code: Text ---@ECHO OFFSET myFileName=new_Fileset /p "myAmount=How many files do you want to create?"for /l %%i in (1,1,%myAmount%) do (copy nul %myFileName%_%%i.txt >NUL)new_File_1.txt
new_File_2.txt
new_File_3.txt

+1  :up:

Batch files are a free and convenient way to do many jobs.  But, it's only us older hands who know how to use them?  :o

Renegade:
Hmmm...

Looks like 2 things:

1. There's a demand for it.
2. I reinvented the wheel. :D

I never thought to check the code snacks. I just Googled, didn't see anything interesting, so did it myself. (I could see that I would need to do the same thing again.)

Paul Keith:
I just use the hotkeys in file managers. (ctrl+shift+n in nautilus and F8 in Ultra Explorer)

Now if we're talking about bulk creating txt or rtf files all with different names - man...I haven't found a hotkey or program for that. (especially since batch text file makers need to have predefined names in place)

Bulk Creating Folders


I have also often the need to create files or folders and tried do code something my own.
At last they work good enough for me... but i am interested in an feature rich, well coded app,... if anyone knows one or like to code...
i have the ideas for features and can make an GUI layout,... but doesn't have the time or skill to code this so it runs fast.
