IDEA: Find filenames/folders above certain length and offer to rename them
lanux128:
the trim functions are working quite well on files but on the folders. just letting you know, i know it's still WIP. thanks for adding the path box, but a message pops up when i press 'Add files' button.
another way to do it is to add in this line:
--- ---FileSelectFolder, OutputVar, StartingFolder, 2
where '2' means "to provide an edit field that allows the user to type the name of a folder".
skwire:
not sure if there's been a solution or not (it's vewy vewy quiet out there...)

Apologies, Lanux128 and Target. I've been busy with Trout code, PlayTime code, both daughter's soccer games and my own hockey games. =] It looks like Target has you well in hand.
Target:
yeah, folders might be a bit of problem (if you change a folder name, all the filepaths are changed as well...)
sorry, thought that was what you were asking for as a feed for adding folders (the messagebox was for debugging so it can safely be ignored). Thinking about it a bit more though I can see a number of problems with this approach (so out it goes... :huh:)

no apologies necessary, you gotta do what you gotta do!!
not sure if I'd say I had this in hand though, it's more like a tenous grip on one edge...
I was kinda looking forward to your solution though (I have no doubt it would be both more elegant and more capable than mine)

Okay, I'll start writing it.
