Combining files without ending up with .out extension

[jzekeb]

Is there some way to do this? I do a combine files on .00x files it results in a file named myfile.ext.out. You then have to rename it to get rid of the out.

Any suggestions?

Yep, it's one of those little big things that annoy me too. I can only assume that ghisler was drunk that day when he has implemented the function...

There's nothing you can do besides
- wait for a decent fix from the master himself
- use an external file combine solution you can call from a button or so
- ask me to write an AutoHotkey-Script that will ask you for the wanted extension (well, I don't have any desires to do so right now but I will for sure do it some day )

Hello Jeff !

…I can only assume that ghisler was drunk that day when he has implemented the function...

Ho ! Shocking ! I'm pretty sure that our dear Author drinks milk only !

- Seriously : One can simply use the copy /b on the command line :

Code: Select all

copy /b path\parts.* path\filename.ext

Just to wait for one of your famous scripts !

Note : when the original file has been split in TC, the "join" (combine) function restores the right file-name and extension, I ckecked again, 'cause I no longer use this a lot by now…

Maybe this script could be adapted.

It can be connected through hotkey with some script that will receive selection from TC. That AH script is too much work for this kind of simple thing.

That AH script is too much work for this kind of simple thing.

But it exists, as opposed to other solutions.
