encoding/decoding multiple files

[HAL 9000]

TC7.50RC2

highlighting several files for encoding or decoding always works only
for the selected one.
highlighting is completely ignored.

e.g.
having
1.txt, 2.txt, 3.txt, 4.txt
and highlighting 1.txt and 2.txt but placing the cursor on 4.txt
will have these functions being applied to 4.txt only.

AFAIK you can only encode / decode one file. (MIME, etc. is only defined for single files. There is no information about directory structures, etc.) [-> so its not a bug...]

Of cause it would be better if TC would create several files for each selected file. [...but a missing feature]

You could also zip the files and then encode them.

decoding always works only
for the selected one.

Well, this is what the menu entry says :
Encode file
Decode file

... file is a single one

So it does what it says, where is the bug ?


Just curious: Why do you still use TC7.50RC2 while TC7.50a final has been released already ?

@Samuel

you maybe right about MIME, but text files can contain multiple encoded
sections. even if TC is not able to encode multiple files into a single
container it can at least extract everything from it.
besides there is no need for a directory structure if such a container
is handled like an ordinary packed file with all files in the top level.
