Have you tried ... Hold shift right click and
select "Open with". Select "Always use this program to
open this type of file"
Now se;ect "other" button. See if you can find T602.exe.
If you find it click on it and it will be entered in
the 'open with' list. Now highlight it in the list and OK.
This should open all the same filesyou selected to T602.

Hi everyone,

not sure if the subject of this thread is a good way to
describe what I want to do, but here it is. Basically I
wish to convert several (many) files from WordPerfect
format to T602 format. For this, I have a small
utility "pre602.exe" which functions in this way:

PRE602.EXE [parameters] inputfile outputfile

In my case, let's say I wish to convert a file
called "text.wp", I would do:
pre602 /d:5 text.wp text.602


Question 1
Imagine I have twenty files I want to convert, and I
don't want to do each one individually. Is there any way
to do this using a batch file? If I put all those files in
one folder, is there any way how to generate a list of
those files, and then run this list through the pre602.exe
command automatically?


Question 2
I want to define a custom action for .wp files which
would do the conversion to .602. I was able to do
something like this:

pre602.exe /d:5 %1 new.602
However, I am not able to figure out a way to refer to
the part of the filename before the file extension, and
thus I had to make the output file something fixed, which
I subsequently have to rename. I know "%1" refers to the
file that the action is taken on. If the file is,
say, "xxx.wp", is there any way to refer just to "xxx"?

Thanks for your input.

Ivan
