Hi.
I seek to craft a script and need help, please. I have no code/scripting training, but have tooled the code below from other people's examples. Amazingly to me, it works. (No doubt there is some refinement possible). The script simply saves a file in a predetermined format/template - but provides a form with an input for filename. It eliminates a hundred mouseclicks at every session of my Sound Forge work!!
What I would like MUCH MORE is: a form with several buttons replacing the single form "OK" button, each of which would add a bit of text to the file's saved name, and then proceed just as the "OK" button would.
Specificly; I get my dialouge form, input a file name, and then press one of three buttons to confirm and proceed with the save job - but button
#1 would add "(a)" to the end of the filename,
#2 would add "(b)" to the end of the filename,
#3 would add "(c)" to the end of the filename.
I must have the added text on every file name I create to indicate critical information, so that would be just brilliant. One script and one click to streamline all file saving!
Anybody offer any help??
