Re: Hot folder for text files?

2011-04-11 Thread Tony Patton
I did something similar before, monitored a folder and if a file was older
than 5 minutes it sent an email.  Had to add in a timer loop to only send 1
mail an hour as the recipient got fed up getting the alerts :-)

Think I set it as a scheduled task to run at startup so it was always
running.

Either can be done easily... trivial.
I usually move mine to a subfolder called 'processed'.

Do the text files that have already been printed remain in the directory or are 
they deleted?

Subject: Hot folder for text files?

  
  

Dumb question, but I'm striking out on Google.

   

I'm just looking for a program that can monitor a folder and print any text 
files (just plain old .txt files) that show up in it? I've found a program 
called   Hot Folder Printer, but it only works with image files.  

   

Anyone happen to see something like this in their travels?  

   

Thanks,  

   

Evan

Re: Hot folder for text files?

2011-04-11 Thread Sam Cayze
I wrote a script that emails a new file that appears in a folder, I'm sure
we could tweak it to print the file instead.

Back in the office Tuesday.  Ping me if interested.
