Command dialog:

Command dialog opens when you click Command button on the bottom row of any Full Dialog. This option allows you to execute a macro command sequence once for each file specified.

These fields and options are available in the Command dialog (in addition to the common options):

Command dialog, 'Simple Dialogs' version.


Open as read-only
- The file is opened in read-only mode. Speeds up the operation somewhat, and protects file from accidental changes.
Enter your command sequence in the 3rd text box (below the text "Enter single line Vedit command sequence...")
You may enter one or more Vedit macro language commands, separated with spaces. Wildfile then executes this command sequence on each file.
Pause after each screenful.
- If your command displays something and you have selected many files, the text might scroll out of display before you can read it. If you check this checkbox, the display is stopped after each screenful of text and you are prompted to continue execution.
