To you know this plugin and VBS?

'*** Script for Script Content Plugin 0.2
'*** Lev Freidin (c) 2005-2008
'*** http://www.totalcmd.net/plugring/script_wdx.html

And a modification of this VBS could help:

Code: Select all

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") 
Set oTextStream = fso.OpenTextFile(filename) 

If not oTextStream.AtEndOfStream Then 
  s = oTextStream.ReadLine 
  Pos1 = InStr(1, s, """") 
  Pos2 = InStrRev(s, """") 
  If (Pos1 > 0) and (Pos2 > Pos1) Then 
    content = Mid(s, Pos1 + 1, Pos2 - Pos1 - 1) 
  Else 
    content = " ¦ Keinen Text mit "" in erster Zeile" 
  End If 
End If 

oTextStream.Close

Alternative to complicated scripts:

You could use the RegXtract plugin for this.

Do these files just contain that one number each, and nothing else?
If yes, mark the files in Total Commander, open the Pack... Dialog and use the RegXtract settings:

Regular Expression:

Code: Select all

.*

Replace String:

Code: Select all

$0

[x] Line mode
(leave everything else at default setting)


Now you have an output file in the format:

[face=courier]>>>> "D:\directory\file1.txt":
>> Line 1:
29292
>>>> "D:\directory\file2.txt":
>> Line 1:
48484
...[/face]

If this format isn't satisfactory, use this file again with RegXtract, with the following settings:

Regular Expression:

Code: Select all

>>>> "(.*?)":\R>> Line \d+:\R(^.*?$)

Replace String:

Code: Select all

$1 $2

[x] Dotall
[x] Line anchors
(leave everything else at default setting)


The output file should now contain:
[face=courier]D:\directory\file1.txt 29292
D:\directory\file2.txt 48484[/face]

just as you wanted.

That's impressive

Big thanks for the advice / tips. Due to the late hour, tomorrow I will fight to the problem.

@Peter: Unfortunately, I do not know VBS.
