You specify which actions and operations should be performed during processing using Action Sequence. Then you can adjust various options and settings for each action to specify all the details pertaining to the operations you want the action to do. Note: the actions that are available will depend on the product that you are using.
In the last step you choose the destination directory where processed files will be saved; file naming pattern ; output mode - normal, split, join, or zip; and some other processing options. When you have configured all the output options, the program can begin processing files. As it processes files, file list will be automatically updated reflecting detailed progress. Processing can be stopped any time.
At the end the program will display a detailed summary; a processing log will also be available so you can examine any warnings or errors if they occurred. Perform search and replace operations in text files using Regular Expressions. Replaces specified occurrences of a specified byte sequence or pattern in a file with another byte pattern. Replaces occurrences of a specified text strings in a file with corresponding replacement strings.
Similar to Basic Text Replace, but allows to define unlimited number of search and replace pairs at once. Similar to RegEx Replace, but allows to define unlimited number of search and replace pairs at once. You can use this action for all sorts of things like: sorting items in a long list; numbering lines in a file; URL-encoding links; capitalizing all XML tag names; etc.
Possibilities are almost limitless with this very powerful action! Extract text from files matched by the supplied Regular Expression pattern. The result of the operation will be that the file will contain only the text matched by the RegEx pattern together with prefixes and suffixes if defined. For example you can use this action to easily extract all e-mail address from a file and have them placed one per line. It is especially powerful if used in conjunction with Join Output Mode, where all processed files will be joined together at the end, so that in this example e-mail addresses extracted from all the files will be collected in a single file.
With this action you can perform operations like: remove first 10 characters of the last lines, or remove 5 lines that follow first 3 lines entirely. Copy a block of text specified by line or character range to a specified position within the same file. For example, you can copy first 2 lines in a file to the end of the file.
Move a block of text specified by line or character range from one position to another within the same file. For example, you can move last 10 lines from the end to the start of the file. This action is very similar to Copy Text action, except it performs a Move operation instead, whereby original block of text will be removed. It is therefore equivalent to a Copy Text followed by Delete Text actions.
Batch Files offers various text transformations and formatting operations that can be performed on specified parts of text in files. The operations below work on lists, where a list is any text that contains specified string separators that split the text into "items". For example a simple text file with multiple lines can be viewed as a list where the items are the lines, and the separators are the line breaks.
You can define your own separators letting you perform operations below on text with strings separated by comas, tabs, or semicolons for example.
To remove specific byte blocks those matched by a pattern , use Binary Replace action and set the Replacement field to be empty. Copy specified block of bytes to a specified position within the same file. This operation increases file size! For example, you can copy first bytes in a file to the end of the file. Move specified block of bytes from one position to another within the same file. Depending on options, this operation may increase file size! For example, you can move file's last 10 bytes to the beginning of the file.
Reverse the order of bits in a byte or a block of bytes up to 16 bytes , within the specified byte range. A text to bin and bin to text converter aka hex to bin and bin to hex that converts a binary file raw bytes into byte representations encoded in either hexadecimal, decimal, octal, or binary form in a text file with specified formatting and vice versa.
Note You can easily compute and record hashes of all files you are processing and store them in a single file if you: 1 select text format for the hash and enable "append file path" option, and 2 set output mode to Join , so that the resulting file will contain file paths and hashes of all the processed files. By default, all processed files are saved at the end of processing according to the settings you select in Step 3 file name, output location, output mode, etc.
With this action however, you can save the file more than once and during different stages of processing. This is very useful if you need to save the file to several locations; or if you need to keep different versions of the file one before you apply a particular action or actions, and the other once the action or actions have been applied. In Manual Mode you explicitly select files for processing in a variety of ways.
Additionally you can further refine the file list by unchecking the files you wish to temporarily exclude from processing. When satisfied with file selection, you can then manually process the whole batch. Processing can be started as long as the file list contains at least one checked file. In Manual Mode the program processes files only upon explicit initiation when you add files, and click on the Start button.
When files are processed in Manual Mode, a detailed progress is displayed right within the file list, letting you know which filea are being processed and what is the processing stage. A processing result will be displayed in the file list as well once the file has been processed. You can then click on that processing result to see a detailed processing log for the file. In addition, you can easily filter the file list by processing result status.
For example, you may remove all successfully processed files with just one click, leaving only those that had issues or were skipped. In Automatic Mode, instead of selecting specific files for processing, you setup "monitors" that tell the program which files should be processed and when. The processing is performed automatically and continually when the specified conditions are met and the program is in the active monitoring mode.
A monitor works by performing periodic scans of the specified folder s for all the files that match given criteria and satisfy monitor's behavior type see below. All matching files that were found by the monitor are then put into the processing queue. Depending on the monitor behavior type, file processing may be initiated under different conditions:. There is no limit to how many monitors you can setup — it only depends on the system resources that are available to you.
The monitor setup can be easily saved to a template file for future use. Once you have setup the monitors and actions, you can start monitoring and processing files.
Unlike the Manual Mode, processing in the Automatic Mode can be paused, so you can edit both the monitors and actions in the Action Sequence, and then safely resume processing. Automatic Mode is ideal for cases when your workflow involves continually working with small batches of files that are coming in periodically and require similar kind of processing. In Automatic Mode, instead of selecting specific files for processing, you setup "monitors" that tell the program which files should be processed and when; and the processing is performed automatically and continually when the specified conditions are met.
Depending on the kind of monitor you setup, the processing will be triggered only when appropriate condition is met. For example, if you set up a File Exists monitor, the program will always process all qualified files in the monitored folder as long as they are present; however if you set up a File Added monitor, the program will process only the new files that have been copied to or moved to the folder since the start of its monitoring.
The monitors work by continually scanning the specified folder directory and subfolders for specified files that match a predefined naming pattern mask as well as other properties. The scanning happens at equally spaced time intervals that you define refresh rate. Among the file properties that may be examined are: file size, file dates, file attributes.
Thus Batch Files will enqueue for processing only those files that match all the requirements specified in the monitor. You can define as many monitors as you like subject to the system resources you have and the product edition that you are using. Additionally, monitors can be enabled and disabled with a single click. In automatic mode processing works in 2 stages.
First, the monitor s scan the specified folder s for any valid files, and add them to the processing queue. Then the program automatically processes all the files in that queue. These 2 stages need not be consecutive, as the program begins processing as soon as the queue is non-empty. Triggered or Scheduled Processing Mode lets you define different processing jobs that can be executed on schedule or a particular trigger, such as: on every Monday at ; at Logon ; on a particular system event; etc.
The program does not need to be running for the processing job to be activated - it will be automatically started with the right command line parameters at the right time by Windows Task Scheduler Service which needs to be enabled for this feature to work and begin performing the tasks defined by the processing job.
Processing jobs are easily managed within the program, but should the need arise, you can also modify their properties in Windows Task Scheduler directly. All processing jobs can be different: for every job you can specify not only the trigger or schedule that will determine when it runs, but also the files to be processed, actions to be performed, output file name pattern and directory, and a host of other options. In Triggered or Scheduled Processing Mode, file processing is started upon a specified event trigger or at a specific time as per the specified schedule.
Batch Files need not be running in order for the processing jobs to be activated, the program and processing is started automatically by Windows Task Scheduler Service. Creating a processing jobs is straight forward. You define some general settings such as job's name, mode of operation. Then you specify the job's schedule or trigger that will determine when the processing job is actually ran.
Finally you specify the which files should be processed; how the files should be processed which actions should be performed ; and where the processed files should be saved. Once the processing job has been created, it appears in the list of processing jobs.
This list reflects all the jobs that have been created and are registered with Windows Task Scheduler Service which is responsible for job's execution. Jobs can be enabled and disabled with a single click by putting or removing the checkmark next to the job's name in the list.
With Action Sequence you can easily specify which actions to perform on the selected files, under what circumstances, and in which order. You tell the program how to process files by adding various actions to the Action Sequence , which represents a sequence of operations to be performed step by step. Conditional processing is possible with conditions, which are simply special actions that make sure that the actions that follow them should only be performed if particular requirements are satisfied: file name and file size match specified parameters, or a file contains certain text, etc.
This results in potentially different processing paths for different files. Actions and conditions are visually presented in the action sequence using numbered hierarchical tree-like list and arrows, making it easy to design and see processing logic and understand various relationships between the actions and conditions. There is no limit to how many actions or conditions can be added to the action sequence, nor are there any restrictions as to how the actions should be ordered. Do whatever you need to accomplish your goals!
The action sequence that you design, including all the actions, conditions, levels of hierarchy, and individual action's settings can be easily saved to a file as XML-based template that you can reuse later. Because templates are XML-based, you can actually use any text editor or specialized XML tools to edit these templates afterwards. Conditional processing allows you to perform different actions and operations on different files.
This is accomplished using Conditions in the actions sequence , which alter the processing flow, so that different files may be processed using different processing paths! Any actions that follow a condition in the action sequence will be performed only if the check s defined by the condition have been passed by the file being processed. Any actions nested inside a condition whose check s have not been passed by the files will not be performed on those files.
If another condition is encountered later, it may add to the effects of previously defined condition s , so that any subsequent actions will be performed, provided the file being processed passes the new condition's check s as well. Check if the file being processed matches specified file properties such as name pattern, location, size, and attributes.
If it is a binary file, this is equivalent to checking file size. Check if the file contains or does not contain specified text pattern using Regular Expressions. This condition is similar to Text Content Condition, except that for searching and matching more powerful Regular Expressions are used. This condition is useful if you want to make sure a file contains certain minimum number of specific text patterns.
Every condition has these common behavior settings that determine how it interacts with other conditions and thus how it affects file processing flow. Program features native support for Regular Expression syntax highlighting and contextual tips.
Although this feature is entirely optional and may be easily turned off, it offers important visual cues and quick help should the need arise, and is ideal for someone who is just starting with Regular Expressions. Regular Expressions Text Selector will generate a valid RegEx pattern that will match an arbitrary block of text, given by the starting line together with total line count, as well as starting character together with total character count per line.
Regular Expressions Lines Selector will generate a valid RegEx pattern that will match specified lines of text given certain constraints such as: line range and line contents. You can, for example, specify that only the lines that contain, or start with, or perhaps do not end with specific content should be selected, and only if they fall within a given range i. You can restrict which tags should be matched by specifying required attributes, attribute values, or require that no attribute s of specified kind should be present.
Regular Expressions Number Selector will generate a valid RegEx pattern that will match a whole number in decimal format within the specified range. When it comes to saving the processed files, the program offers a great variety of options: it gives you full control over destination folder, file name pattern, file attributes, and output modes.
You have total control over where the processed files should be saved. Output folder directory can be:. Joining and splitting can be done at either binary level by bytes or at the text level by either characters or lines. When joining by bytes, the files are aligned so that the last byte of the first file comes right before the first byte of the second file.
In Zip mode files are put together into root directory of a single zip file and optionally compressed. This mode is similar to Join mode, in that in the end only one output file is produced, - in this case it is the zip archive containing processed files. All the files inside the archive are named according to the file name pattern that you specify. You can specify to run a third-party program after processing each file, or after processing all files, providing output file path s as the argument.
This is useful if you want to do additional processing on the files that at present cannot be achieved with this program. You can specify additional things that include: backup policy, whether original files should be deleted, should processing stop on errors, etc. In Normal regular output mode, processed files are not joined, split, or zipped, and remain singular. There's one-to-one correspondence between input and output files. In Join output mode, processed files will be joined together.
Files will be joined in the same order as they appear in the file list. Files can be joined either in binary mode at the byte level, or in text mode either at the character or line level subsequent files are put on the new line. In Split by Separator output mode, each processed file will be split into parts by the specified either text or binary separator entered in hexadecimal format.
When choosing output file name pattern, you can specify where the dynamically generated file part number should be included in the file name. By default, numeric code is appended to the end of file's full name. In Split into Parts output mode, each processed file will be split into specified number of parts of equal size.
The number of parts will be fixed, but their size may be different, depending on the size of original file. In Split by Size output mode, each processed file will be split into parts of specified size. The number of parts will vary depending on the size of original file. In Zip output mode, processed files will be put into a single zip archive into its root directory and optionally compressed using deflate compression algorithm.
This mode is similar to Join output mode, except the files are put into an archive instead of simply being joined together, and their output file names will be preserved in an archive. When processing files you have additional output options. For example, you can set to adjust output files' dates and attributes. You may specify backup settings and whether or not original files should be kept or deleted. You can give processed files any name you desire with the powerful built-in file name designer tool.
The tokens may represent either dynamically generated content that can be included as part of the file name, or a command that somehow modifies the part of the filename that has already been generated like changing letter case, or performing replacement operation. There are close to different tokens that can be used to generate dynamic file names that meet your requirements. Simply include the token in the appropriate place in the file name pattern to have dynamically generated content inserted in the right place if the token generates content , or to affect the generated filename in other ways if the token represents a command or operation.
When it comes to saving processed files, the program really shines, as it comes with built-in professional file renamer tool that lets you easily design file naming pattern simply by drag-dropping different name parts tags onto the text area. You can even perform search and replace operations on the file name patterns you design! Moreover the program can act solely as bulk file name renamer utility: you do not have to add any actions to the action sequence, and choose to only rename files instead!
One of the ways you can add files to the file list for processing is by doing a search for all files that match criteria you specify. The program will scan selected directories and subdirectories for any valid files and automatically add them to the list. You can find files you need for processing based on file properties like size or creation date, and attributes.
This is in addition to basic search by name! What's more is that you can fine tune these and select the exact ranges for all properties, like setting the size to be between 1MB and 5MB for example.

The main window of the application enables users to select the files they want to process in multiple ways.
One can add entire folders or individual files by navigating to their location or dragging and dropping them into the program's selection panel. Another useful feature is the ability to scan and automatically add files according to certain criteria. For example, one can define a search by selecting a folder and using regular expressions to filter files based on name, properties such as size, date created, attributes, etc and content.
These files will then be added to the selection. This can be done automatically, or using a schedule, by providing the application with a location to monitor, a set of search criteria and a period of time at which to run scans.
Using this feature in scheduled mode enables one to define specific times and dates when locations should be scanned and files processed.
