Title: Defining a set of extensions that start automatically
Post by montillo on 04/27/09 at 20:47:34

Is there a way to define a set of extensions that will start automatically when I starting eccoPro?

Say for example, you want to run FileMagic, MagicView and other extensions, but would like them all to start up automatically when ever ecco is started..rather than having to start each one individually.. Is there a way to automate that?

you could create a .bat file,

a simple text file with the full path of each program you want to run,

make it a .bat extension and double click on it like a program.

nice tutorial here: http://www.computerhope.com/batch.htm

also, can create ecco 'launch items' for each tool.
then drag (right click drag) the 'button' from top right to create button shortcut for tools.

hope clear to helpful.

[edit]
a text file with:

@start "xxxxx"
...

called yyy.bat

will do the job. xxxx is full path & name of file you want to run,
yyyy is name of the batch file.
