2 Vochomurka:

Let me try to explain a little more. I have thousands of text files with different extensions (.bat, .cmd, .txt, .vbs ...) in various directories. Most files have information field as comments (descript.ion). I want to merge (or append) these comments at the bottom of the text files. I wanted to keep the explanation brief, but let me know if it is not clear yet.

A plugin through Change Attributes/Plugin: Property: Value would have been ideal to append the comments to their corresponding text files. But a DOS script, possibly with a FOR loop, invoked through a button could "type" the comment snippets to the text files would also be equally fine. (But how can it work if text files are many in a directory and descript.ion file is only one?)

I will not dare suggest a mechanism, as I have found over the years in this forum wonderful solutions which I did not find through hours of google search, but often found that someone came up with an elegant solution!
