hi there!
i'm realy new to mpl! scripting and i need some help with getting this to work

i got it from mpscripts.net

i'm trying to list out the files from directory, and send the list of files in the chat.

this is what i got yet:


function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd,Message)
{
    if(Message.match("^!list"))
    {
        var folder = Message.substr;
        var type = "1"
        //ChatWnd.SendMessage(folder);
        var stuff = ListFolders();
        ChatWnd.SendMessage(stuff);
    }
}

//Folder = folder to read files from
//Type: 0 = Full Path; 1 = Filename Only
//Returns array if files found otherwise false
function ListFiles(folder,type) {
    var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
    var dirFiles = new Array();
    if(fso.FolderExists(folder)) {
        f = fso.GetFolder(folder);
        files = new Enumerator(f.Files);
        if(files.atEnd()) return false;
        for (var i = 0; !files.atEnd(); files.moveNext())
        {
            if(type == 1)
                dirFiles[i++] = files.item();
            else {
                var temp = "" + files.item();
                var index = temp.lastIndexOf("\\");
                dirFiles[i++] = temp.substr(index+1);
            }
        }
        return dirFiles;
    } else
        return false;
}

i know that there are several thing i'm doing wrong but that is why i'm asking for some help

sry for my english and thank you..

It needs to be used like this:

code:

---

var list = ListFiles("C:\\",1);
Debug.Trace("First File in C:\\ is "+list[0]);

---

That would get a list of all files in C:\ and Debug.Trace the first file in the list.

So in your example you'd need to do this

code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd,Message)
{
    if(Message.match("^!list"))
    {
        var folder = Message.substr;
        var stuff = ListFolders(folder,1);
        ChatWnd.SendMessage(stuff.join("\r\n"));
    }
}

---

That would send a list of your files to your contact with each file on its own line.

Thank You!
