[description]
[keywords {file utilities} copy move remove multi-file]
[para]
This package provides a single command to perform actions on multiple
files selected by glob patterns. It is a thin layer over the package
[package fileutil::multi::op] which provides objects for the
same. This package simply creates a single such object and directs all
file commands to it.
[para]
At the core is a domain specific language allowing the easy
specification of multi-file copy and/or move and/or deletion
operations. Alternate names would be scatter/gather processor, or
maybe even assembler.
For the detailed specification of this language, and examples, please
see the documention for the package [package fileutil::multi::op].
[section {PUBLIC API}]
The main command of the package is:
[list_begin definitions]
[call [cmd ::fileutil::multi] [opt [arg word]...]]
This command interprets the specified words as file commands to
execute. See the section [sectref {FILE API}] of the documentation for
the package [package fileutil::multi::op] for the set of acceptable
commands, their syntax, and semantics.
[para]
The result of the command is the result generated by the last file
command it executed.
[list_end]
[section {BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK}]
This document, and the package it describes, will undoubtedly contain
bugs and other problems.
Please report such in the category [emph fileutil] of the
[uri {http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=12883} {Tcllib SF Trackers}].
Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have for either
package and/or documentation.
