Ouwwww. That's not my spirit. I use shortcuts precisely to not duplicate file space. With seven real hard disk in my new pc I am plenty of space. Super plenty of space. I think a hard drive goes better is plenty of space. Today is easy with disks of 2 TB with variable speed.
I have downloaded the soft and try for the future.
 

At the present moment I need to export some information and create recopilations of real files under relative hyperlinks under one single folder. Not a dozen folders inside 7 hard disks specialized. That's is mi situation for the rest of my life, but not for the rest of the world I need to communicate.

Sometimes I need duplicate the information in one single folder to share.....

Better to share.

I think with relative hyperlinks is possible with word 2002. but I don't know if is possible to modify the the initial hyperlinks by the final ones, or obtain a list of existing hyperlink to modify before burn to a cd/dvd/usb or external drive.
The problem is the work system used. Initially I used a folder to the topic I want to export to cd/dvd/usb or external drive. I build that folder with many links to my disks (image disk O: , data disk Y:, and a large etc of special uses).

Then I make a new folder in other place and recopile everything with shortcuts in a special way : crono and theme organize by month, date and so on.

Then I transform the shortcuts to real files and folders inside that new folder. With a program developed by 4wd

https://www.donation...?topic=25770.new#new

Then I create the word document and begin the explanation linking to folders, files, images, sound, videos and any element contained in that new folder.

If I have to used this presentation again I can add the newer real files , modify the word document, or even create a newer folder in other place, if I use relative hyperlinks.

Suppose I have a word document in the older first folder with hyperlinks to several files, folders in several disks. Can I obtain a list of the hyperlinks to edit with ease ?

Best Regards
Excuse my language and "complexity". I think I must simplify all this. aSuite have no spanish language and I would like in spanish because the final user is spanish.
I use many years ago locate32 for indexing my seven hard disks at the present moment in the new pc, and four hard disks in the old one. 

Where can I find information and software for the webserver to be used in local mode (I have seen in the past cd/dvd developed in this way) or even specialized software to make menus on usb, cd, dvd...... ?

Best Regards

« on: February 23, 2011, 04:25 AM »

Portable hyperlinker

I would like to know about soft for :

I have a folder in my pc with subfolders and files inside. In the main folder a would like to put a director document or a sort of menu with explanations (I was thinking in word xp with hyperlinks to the documents - images, audio, video, pdf, doc, etc)
But I need relative hyperlinks because I can change the entire folder to another location (usb, dvd, external hard drive....) .

I prefer a freeware because I give that information in a disk to other people. No problem with anyone format of file because everyone has free soft for reading like universal Viewer.

There are several hundreds of links. So it's necessary a sof with alternatives finding the shortcuts in every situation.

Do you know anyone ?

Best regards

(this is only an introduction). Your splendid codesnack is finished at the above state.
By the way. I am looking for a sort of director file with universal shortcuts or something near that.

I try to explain the best I can. In the main original folder I use by example (a document word xp) with links (hyperlinks) . I suppose i will lose those links when move the .doc document to the new folder. And obviously sure when I move the word document to a cd/dvd/usb/external hard drive.

I use from many years ago a CRM Goldmine 5.5 that have the possibility to offer alternativas paths when an original link is not found.

I don't know the exact concept behing : universal shortcut. Perhaps have other utilities like explore other hard disk when the link is not found in the first. Or a desktop shortcut tha may vary according the external disk you have connected.

When me like a little ant have to link several hundreds of linked files revised each time I move the word document is a tedious task.

Anyone knows alternatives ?

Best Regards

I don't know. I try treecopy as a portable version. But to solve the recursevely mode I think an array.
to control over the past copy shorts.

Sorry, I know English isn't your native language but I'm still having trouble following what you need to happen.

Is there any chance you could give me a sample before and after folder structure.

eg. Can you do 'dir /b /s (source path) >src.txt' and then create the destination as you wish it to look and do 'dir /b /s (dest path) >dest.txt' and then PM me the two text files ?

First proofs great.

Now I need a program to reproduce the folder structure. Copy the directory structure of the original folder. I think i've seen or have something like that. I will comment.

I observed the behaviour of this wonderful program : short2real , and the initial folder only contains other real folders, so do nothing.
Over the rest of folders acts one by one interacting with the user to transform file shortcuts and folder shortcuts to real files and real folders.

I have to test the behaviour under hard circunstances like more deeper shortcuts or cycle shortcuts.

Perhaps I can propose a better feature of this program, but from now is very useful.

Best Regards

General Software Discussion / Re: Clever copy

« on: February 20, 2011, 08:02 AM »

I try to explain better now :

I have a folder to copy to another folder  (folder 1 to folder 2)
Folder 1 contains files shortcuts and folder shortcuts.
In the copy process i wish in folder 2 :
a) substitute any file shorcut for the file pointing to.
b) substitute (copy) any folder shorctut for the folder pointing to.

In other words : Folder 2 don't contains shortcuts.

For me is useful too if I can copy the folder 1 in folder 2 and after select the shorcuts to transform in the files or folders they are pointing to.

I think this is a difficult program to make in the full version because may exists circular processes and scan a shortcut folder that may contains other shortcut folder or shortcut files . Or even a shortcut folder inside the original folder pointing exactly to that folder.....

I  am not a programmer but in autohotkey or autoit language the only command seems to be : FileGetShortcut()

So the clever soft may need decide some things before make the copy from folder 1 to folder 2.

Suppose my second real case : I use an image inventory of all things of my house. First I photograph everything by room. Every room is a folder. Then I classify by themes : books, kitchen, textil, or even combined criterias. And use shortlinks to those images .  The real things comes complex if I tell you that the photos are taken ordinarily by date and are saved in my imagen hard drive.

So :
I have my images in the O: disk of images
Folder for my rooms in the Y: data disk full of shortcuts pointing to the original images
Folder for my themes in the Y: data disk : books, videos, cd collection, wine bottles, etc full of shortcuts pointing to the original images.

Now I want to show my inventory system copying the inventory folder (containing the folder for my rooms, and the folder for my themes) to an external disk, usb pendrive, cd or dvd.

That is one of the reasons I would like to know a script to transform the windows shortcut in the file is pointing to.

 

 P.D. And the miracle of the clever copy process would be that the program decides where put soft-links again. By example : put the original images in the rooms folders, and in the themes folders put shortcuts to the rooms folders.........
But I hope we can make simplier and in the easiest way.

Clever copy
I would in the most simple way.
I usually create folders that contains shortcuts to other files and folders in many hard disks. Even in net harddisks.

I would like one of these options :

1) Convert from a folder all shortcuts to the physical corresponding file. Just copying the file.
2) A clever copy program from one folder to another substituting in the target folder all shorcuts with the physical files or a copy of the hard-links.
3) A super clever program to decide in the target folder real files or physical files and shortcuts corresponding in the target files to that real files.

Do you know something to do this ?

Best Regards
