Script for EMXP?

2008-07-29 by s*

Hey esynthesist,

I've been starting to backup my Emax Library again (about 5 big shoeboxes
full of floppies).  The problem is, getting through all the menus in EMXP
each time is a bit time consuming.  Unfortunately I am not the most saavy
when it comes to scripting but, I was wondering how difficult it would be to
create a script for EMXP so that each time I put in a Emax Floppy, all I
would need to do is press enter so that it copies the image directly to a
drive (say my F: drive).  When the copy is complete, it will just prompt for
the next floppy.  If there is a duplicate name, maybe it could give the
option to replace or rename?

I'm not sure how difficult that would be but, I thought I might as well
inquire.  I have a large chunk of the original Emax, Emax II, Voice Crystal
libraries as well as a ton of my own samples (which I would be gladly
willing to share if I could get them all backed up).

Thanks for any help you can offer,

-s*
