Special Forums Windows & DOS: Issues & Discussions Looping script several hundred times ? Post 302774785 by pasc on Sunday 3rd of March 2013 09:37:22 AM
Old 03-03-2013
Well I guess what I wanted was kinda hard to understand...

Let me explain in a better way.

Lets say we have the following:

Code:
convert 001.gif -crop 128x128+0+0 001cropped.gif

The thing I want now, is:

I want DOS to process this command and then change the number of both the "001.gif" and "001cropped".gif by 1 counter and repeat the command.

This step should be processed till dos can't find a matching XXX.gif in the folder to input anymore.

so it is:
process script
- increment numbers by 1 counter (002)
process script again (with new counters)
- increment numbers by 1 counter (003)
...

until the input file (lets say 558 for example) is no longer found and the script is terminated.

That would be exactly what I want.

NG_GIF_DEMUX(4) 					   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 					   NG_GIF_DEMUX(4)

NAME

     ng_gif_demux -- demultiplexer for packets from ng_gif(4) nodes

SYNOPSIS

     #include <netgraph/ng_gif_demux.h>

DESCRIPTION

     The ng_gif_demux netgraph node type demultiplexes the output from ng_gif(4) nodes in the netgraph(4) networking subsystem.

     The gif hook is meant to be connected to the lower or orphans hook of an ng_gif(4) node.  The inet, inet6, atalk, ipx, atm, natm, and ns
     hooks output frames of the given type when they are received on the gif hook.  When a frame is received on one of these hooks, it is encapsu-
     lated and sent out the gif hook.

HOOKS

     This node type supports the following hooks:

     gif    Connection to the lower or orphans hook of an ng_gif(4) node.

     inet   Hook for input and output of IP frames.

     inet6  Hook for input and output of IPv6 frames.

     atalk  Hook for input and output of AppleTalk frames.

     ipx    Hook for input and output of IPX frames.

     atm    Hook for input and output of ATM frames.

     natm   Hook for input and output of NATM frames.

     ns     Hook for input and output of NS frames.

CONTROL MESSAGES

     This node type supports only the generic control messages.
