Bulk FileType Change

Open jewettg opened this issue 10 months ago • 3 comments

As of right now, opening a ProDOS image, you can right-click and choose to change file attributes, or hit ALT-RETURN.

You can only do this on one file. I would love the ability to select multiple files and change the attribute on all those files at once to the same setting chosen.

As of now, you select multiple files, the option to change attributes becomes grayed out.

I realize that this might be possible via the command-line, which I might try next, but would be awesome, if it could be done in the GUI.

CONFIRMED: I can use a wildcard to make the appropriate changes to filetypes on a ProDOS image using:

./cp2 sa greg.po type=BIN FRAMES6:FRAME*.BIN

Just re-iterrating that this would be AWESOME, if it could be done via the GUI. However, the CLI command has just saved he HOURS of work, as I had over 300 files to update.

I think this is a duplicate of #27 (which inspired the CLI feature), though that was focused more on the boolean attributes.

Possibly! So, you can close this if you want, or keep it open. Look forward to your updates! FANTASTIC WORK! ..and it goes without saying, if you can possibly implement a Mac GUI, that would also be OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD!!
