Batch Scripts and access to the selected files

[Dave_SMR]

Is there any method by which a script, called via the batch process method, can gain access to the selected file list?

I'm looking for a method to determine position, particularly the last iteration so some final code can be run.

Nope, not that I know of.

This has been an annoyance with me for years. There are ways around the issue, but nothing direct.

My brain is rather twisted, so you'll find I come up with some very convoluted solutions to things. xD

One way I attempted to handle this was to add logic to the beginning of the script to determine if the script had been called once before. If it had not been run before, it would ask how may images were in the current batch. If it had been run before, it would increment the current position. Once it had reached the end of the total count, it would reset all values so the script looks like it had not yet been run.

Very convoluted, and it relies on the user knowing how many images they put in, and their willingness to enter that value.

Another method would be to just make your own Batch Process command. All in all it's not really that hard, provided you don't want a UI. I mean we can use TKinter but TKinter performs oddly when you try to use an open dialog. But then again the reason we use a program like PSP is so we don't have to design our own tools.
