Hi Folks,
I have 4000+ text files to convert to HTML format. I can readily do one file, but have been unable to figure out how to design the macro to process multiple files.
Thanks!!

Apply macros to multiple files

Re: Apply macros to multiple files
I don't think this is possible, as it is not possible to change between files within a macro and macros can't be called from commandline on starting textpad

Re: Apply macros to multiple files
If you have all files opened, you might try CTRL-TAB to switch to the 'next' file.
But beware - TextPad's behaviour of CTRL-TAB might not be what you expect, as it 'control-tabs' to the next file in a history. So with files a, b, c open CTRL-TABing might lead to a seqience as abababacabacbcba or whatever...
(If you opened a sequence of files and did nothing but execute the macro, you should iterate over the files in reverse order [reverse from the order the files were opened, that is].)
Hope that helped.
