Making Multiple Copies Of A File

[samcro 2]

Hi guys,

 

Drawing a blank here...

 

I want to be able to create multiple copies of a file.  For example, I want to make 10 copies of a text file.

 

How would I go about doing that?

 

I tried implementing different ways but none of them worked.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Maybe load the file into a list then loop 10 times and save the list to a file on every loop with a different filename?

I would probably do it with a shell command. Copy or Xcopy. 

 

Take a look at the following plugin

Here is a quick example:

set(#CONTENT, $read file("c:\\myfile.txt"), "Global")
set(#FILE Number, 1, "Global")
loop(10) {
    save to file("c:\\myfile{#FILE Number}.txt", #CONTENT)
    increment(#FILE Number)
}

set(#CONTENT, $read file("c:\\myfile.txt"), "Global")
set(#FILE Number, 1, "Global")
loop(10) {
    save to file("c:\\myfile{#FILE Number}.txt", #CONTENT)
    increment(#FILE Number)
}

 

@UbotDev.com, that works pretty good thanks!

 

Has anyone done it with images?  I tried it with this same code but the images turn out to be corrupted.

 

Thanks

As Dan already mentioned you would use shell command for that.

You would do something like:

set(#FILE Source Path, "c:\\myfile.jpg", "Global")
set(#FILE Number, 1, "Global")
loop(10) {
    set(#RESULT Copy, $plugin function("Advanced Shell.dll", "$shell batch hidden", "copy \"{#FILE Source Path}\" \"c:\\myfile{#FILE Number}.jpg\""), "Global")
    increment(#FILE Number)
}

This method should also be more memory friendly.

    increment(#FILE Number)
}
set(#WORKER Id, $find regular expression($plugin function("Command Line Arguments.dll", "$command line arguments"), "(?<=id=)\\d+"), "Global")
if($not($comparison(#WORKER Id, ">", 0))) {
    then {
        set(#WORKER Id, 67, "Global")
        set(#WORKER Id, 68, "Global")
    }
    else {
    }
}

This method should also be more memory friendly.

 

Ok, sounds good, but I don't have your plugin actually.  When I went to your site to sign up to download, it won't subscribe me to aweber because they have been receiving a massive DDOS this whole week.

 

Any other way I can get your plugins?

 

You can add me to your list manually if you like.

 

Thanks

Ups, now I noticed I copied too much, so I removed some code.

You could also use Ubot shell command, but you would need to point it to a batch file instead of entering multiple command line commands in command directly.

 

Yes, you are right...Aweber is down for a few days already. :/ Send me an email via website if you need it, and I'll send you the zip there.

@UbotDev.com, just wanted to let you know that I used your Advanced Shell plugin and it works great for this!

 

Thanks again!

Nice to hear you solved it!

 

No problem.

Superb read, good ideas here, i'll be trying this with images shortly.

How about the "Copy File" command?
