Batch assistant

With the batch assistant, you can chain operation on several images. By selecting "Batch assistant" in the file menu, you’ll see:

When WinImage executes a batch, it repeats the sequence ofmaking an image in memory (source), and using this image for saving (destination). When the source has no image, the batch is complete.

You must select one of the following sources:

-of floppiesWinImage will read some floppies. You tell WinImage how many floppies you want it to read.

-of images filesWinImage will load some images. You can open a list file (.WIL), or add some images.

-injecting : WinImage will inject directories into an image. If the directory name contains a number, it can increment the directory name, and make an image for each directory. If a directory is bigger than an image, WinImage makes several images.

You must select one, or more, destinations:

-of floppiesWinImage will write some floppies. You tell WinImage if you want it to format them.

-of image filesWinImage will write some images. You specify the filename of the first, and WinImage increments the subsequent filenames. You can optionally make a list file (.WIL) with a comment.

-extractionWinImage will extract files from an image to directories that you specify. It can also increment the directory name.

In this sample, WinImage extracts the file images DISK1.IMA through to DISK5.IMA to directories c:\temp\disk1 through to c:\temp\disk5.
