Feature Request: Add a menu called 'File/Edit Job List' option in the Job window that 'shell calls' Notepad with the current jobfile.
Problem: This causes a problem before processing starts... Has the file been changed?
Solution 1: It is possible to refresh the Job List just by loading it again (using menu: File/Load Job List), but an additional menu option called File/Refresh Job List would not be such a bad idea...
Solution 2: You could insert a 'job-file-changed-check' routine in top of your 'Start' button routine (and of course some initial checking (file-size) when the job-window opens).
However: Even though solution 2 is the best (in my opinion) solution 1 would be nice to have too, so the window itself can be updated with any changes made, before pressing 'Start'. |

Why are you editing the job file by hand so frequently that you want an option for doing so? |

Because I often do 'almost the same filtering' on lots of files. Its an easy way to copy jobs and alter filenames. Yes I know I can process the directory, but sometimes other parameters needs to be changed. And sometimes I even save a few job-files and use notepad to merge them together into one job file.
Hey... Thats an idea too...

When I want to reapply the same job to multiple files, I make the input and output filenames generic. I rename the source file accordingly and rename it and the output file back when done. |
