Can anyone write a short script for me?

It should be as follows: I want that in every directory a certain text-file is copied (only a few kb long, as an info).

Example: I have a main-directory with around 100 sub-directories. And a text-file with name "text-file.txt", which stand in this main-directory and shall be copied in each of these sub-dir´s. Sure easy to do - but as I don´t know anything about that cryptic script-language too difficult for me to do.

Please publish the script as an answer here. Thx !
My used codecs and settings:
FLAC V1.1.2 -4 / APE V3.99 Update 4 -high / MPC V1.15v --q 5 / LAME V3.97b2 -V2 --vbr-new / OGG aoTuV V4.51 Lancer -q5

once again sweep should be able to help you.

Code: [Select]
sweep xcopy [absolute path to text file]

should do the trick.

I just tried with this:

d:\replaygain-directory\sweep xcopy "d:\ReplayGain-Directory\_ReplayGained --auto --smart.txt"

.... but unfortunately it didn´t work.

Error-message "Invalid parameter-number" appears.
What´s wrong on the syntax?

If you open DOS window and go to the root folder containing the directories you want to copy the file to (e.g. "cd\d:\replaygain-directory") and then type sweep copy d:\replay~1\_Repla~1.txt it works here (win2k).

So, i have to type "copy", not "xcopy" ?!
Okay, I´ll try with it, when I´m at home again (now at work).
