Ok, got it!
I went with ET’s version since it used the same playertype=file I was already sort of used to what the parsing looked and worked,
Thanks both you guys!!

Re: Can RunCommand be used to create a txt file
I was actually pretty close to this solution, but somehow I overlooked StartInFolder.
Here are the sections I needed for this idea.
Here are the sections I needed for this idea.
Code: Select all
[MeasureTxtPath]
Measure=NowPlaying
Playername=[MeasureTitle]
PlayerType=File
RegExpSubstitute=1
Substitute="^(.*)\\.*$":"\1\"
DynamicVariables=1
[mMakeTextFile]
Measure=Plugin
PlugIn=RunCommand
Parameter=echo Edit This File to Start The Tracklist File > Tracks.Txt
State=Hide
StartInFolder=[&MeasureTxtPath]
FinishAction=["[MeasureTxtPath]\Tracks.txt"]
DynamicVariables=1
[Button4F]
Meter=Shape
Shape=Rectangle 171,292,28,28,14 | StrokeWidth 0 | Fill Color #FillColor#
Antialias=1
LeftMouseUpAction=[!CommandMeasure mMakeTextFile Run ][!Update]

Re: Can RunCommand be used to create a txt file
Always glad to help.
Have you considered using the FileView plugin to generate a list of tracks in a folder, then edit that folder by adding a 'tracks.txt' for any multi-track files? This would give you access to all single song tracks and a list of multi-track files.
That may not be what you are interested in doing, but it offers more possibilities.
Anyway, good luck with your project.

I was thinking along those lines. Given some perspective from other posts about expanding this skin.eclectic-tech wrote: ↑March 8th, 2023, 2:27 am Always glad to help.

The real idea was to get tracks for obscure recordings and 90s tech-synth, and transcribing what available tracks were available to be named by the end user. Which is mostly only me but it was fun getting these new-to-me ideas and methods to get them working.

Yeah, I see what you are doing and the 'Tracks.txt' should work for your idea.CodeCode wrote: ↑March 8th, 2023, 11:33 am I was thinking along those lines. Given some perspective from other posts about expanding this skin.

I know those compilation files are difficult to navigate without some kind of menu, so this is a good idea.
