Does any of you have an idea on how to use the Rename-feature to rename a file using md5 conversion.

Assuming you are running on OSX where 'md5' application is available your could use the following script expression.



Process.execute(new Array("md5", "-q", job.getPath()));

Process.stdout;

Hi Dwight,



You are right, that I'm usually on OSX but in this case I'm trying to help a costumer running Switch on Windows Server 2008. Do I understand you right that this makes a difference for the suggested script?

The 'md5' utility ships with Mac OS X. It isn't available on Windows without installing something like this: http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/



You would need to change the script to:



if (s.isMac())

Process.execute(new Array("md5", "-q", job.getPath()));

else

Process.execute(new Array("PathTomd5", "-n", job.getPath()));

Process.stdout;



Customize the path of md5 on Windows to location you installed it.

Hi Dwight

I've tested this on Mac OSX and it works just perfect.

For using it on Windows you suggest that I download and install "something like this" and then you supply a download link. The link refers to a PDF, an I'm not quite sure how I'm supposed to use that?

Sorry, copy-n-paste error. I fixed the URL in original post.
