Random file selection function

Post by *Rob2222 »

Hello,

It would be nice to have a (to a button mapable) function, that selects one random file per keypress. For example you have 100 MP3 files in a directory and want to copy 10 random files to you MP3 player. So you just press the "randomselect" key 10 times.

I would really like such a function.

Or is there something equal yet?

AutoHotKey can do it, maybe some AHK gurus in the forum can help you, :p

You can use the "Random" field of this plugin:

to sort the list randomly. Then just select the first 10 files and copy them to your player.
