D&DR executable question
« on: June 04, 2008, 03:42 PM »
Yo Mouser,

Trying D&DR after you recommended it in the general software forum. 

It seems to be just what I'm looking for - if only it would accept the "built in to the OS" commands such as copy, delete, rename etc.

For example: copy *.mp3 e:\  returns "Error: could not find executable to launch"

Am I missing something in the configuration or syntax which would enable those commands, or can you suggest a workaround?

make a batch (or perl or vb or other scripting language) file that does what you want and invoke that.
i could add an option that wraps commands in a batch file but the process would be essentially the same.
