HEX FILE NAMES

Postby vvasileiou » Thu Jul 21, 2016 12:51 pm

Hallo,

I need to batch rename some files with a name containing only HEX characters.

Is it possible with this application?

Thanks

An Ascii to Hex routine would cover it I would think, so that would be something ripe for 'JavaScript Renaming' (available in the paid version of BRU).

I was under the impression that he would like it to simply replace any arbitrary name with the same in hex.

So something like:

> for i = 1 to name.len, i=ath(i), next i.

Code: Select all
0010 INPUT X$                       
0020 PRINT HTA(X$)                 
0030 INPUT *                       
0040 GOTO 0010                     
>end                               
                                   
READY                               
>run                               
this is a test
