      Hello.

      Is it possible to add a portion of a specific line from the text-file to the name of the text-file batch?

      I would like to add date to the name of all my text-files, and the dates are of-course different on each file.

        You would have to use one of the scripting plugins for that…which means you would have to write some code. If you are prepared for that then your choice of language is Python or Lua. If you want to go this route and need additional help, feel free to continue posting to this thread.
