Copy Directory tree structure

#1 Post by akeygon » 22.03.2009, 15:09

Hi all,
maybe it has been mentioned here some time. I would like to make a backup of directory structure, and text file with folders and files names. In TC it is done via plug-ins wcx type (Catalogmaker, Diskdir and TreeCopyPlus). How about here?

Thx,

Akey

I have been working now for this tool. I don't know how it in TC, but my tool can make copy of directory (with subdir's) without files. Only directory.

May be next work will be queue-copy util :)

TC:
1) Copy of directory with empty folders and subfolders-no file names
2) Text copy of directory incl. folders, subfolders and file names, in a tree form

Both are useful.

Copy Folder Tree - Easily Done

#5 Post by Aliby » 07.09.2009, 13:52

You can do it with the MSDos command xcopy ...
So ... we can automate/script it using Freecommander's Favorite Tools option; "Extras | Favorite Tools | Edit"

Adding the parameters as shown below adds a new button on the toolbar with the selected icon that when clicked works like a dream by copying the folder's sub tree in the Active Pane to the Inactive Pane ... :wink:

Program:
%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe
Start folder:
%ActivDir%
Parameter:
/c xcopy %ActivDir% %InactivDir% /T /E

"tick" Use format 8.3 for file names
Run
"tick" Minimized

Note: %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe /c is what runs the command then closes the command console window (/k would keep the window open afterwards)

:D
