end tell Automating the application on Windows can be done using the Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) protocol. The DDE protocol has several components, including a "Service," "Topic," and "Items." In TextSweep, the Service name is always TclEval (because that is the underlying name that the Tcl interpreter supports), the Topic name is TextSweep, and Items (data or return values) are not currently required. There are various programming languages on Windows in which one can write a DDE client to automate a DDE application, including Tcl, Python, VBA, C/C++, and others. An easy way to automate TextSweep from the command line is to install Chris Oldwood's free DDE Command tool from [http://www.chrisoldwood.com/win32.htm]. The tool can then be incorporated into a batch script such as the following: @echo off start TextSweep.exe call timeout 2 >null call DDECmd.exe execute --server TclEval --topic TextSweep --command "set_search_pattern(\"*.html\")" call DDECmd.exe execute --server TclEval --topic TextSweep --command "set_search_term WordTech" call DDECmd.exe execute --server TclEval --topic TextSweep --command "set_replace_term AWP" call DDECmd.exe execute --server TclEval --topic TextSweep --command "execute_replace" ------------------- title: Help alias: Help TextSweep provides comprehensive user documentation from the "Help" menu, and also provides tooltips for the toolbar buttons. Additional user support is available via the "Contact Code by Kevin" item in the Help menu; and the website link in the help menu. |
