Please extend variables for extern tools

Post by SimonWpt »

I try to integrate some programs via extern tools. Unfortunately I can access only two variables: %file and %dir

I need more variables, like %filename and %fileext

Example with google closure compiler:

Code: Select all

java -jar compiler.jar --js %file --js_output_file %dir\%filename-min.%fileext
java -jar compiler.jar --js %file --js_output_file %dir\min-%filename.%fileext
create

Code: Select all

java -jar compiler.jar --js c:\htdocs\test.js --js_output_file c:\htdocs\test-min.js
java -jar compiler.jar --js c:\htdocs\test.js --js_output_file c:\htdocs\min-test.js
Greetings

Bertram
