Why won't you just make a batch file that starts both, foobar and Evil Lyrics, on the same time?

Code: [Select]
REM start bat file
c:\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe
c:\evillyrics\evillyrics.exe
REM replace paths with real paths etc
REM end bat file


copy/paste this into notepad, and save as <whatever>.bat
(you might need to put quotes around the filename when you save, to stop notepad from saving as whatever.bat.txt)

edit: as dano said below me, you need to use the "start" commend... sorry.. else evillyrics wont start until you close foobar

This actually works I think:
Code: [Select]
@ECHO OFF
start C:\Programme\EvilLyrics\EvilLyrics.exe
start C:\Programme\Winamp\winamp.exe

With other paths ofc

yes but you have to enclose the path with a ", for example: "c:\program files\xxx"

Post by: dano on 2004-06-28 21:30:16
if "c:\program files\xxx" does not work, try c:\"program files"\xxx

@ECHO OFF
start "C:\Program Files\EvilLyrics\EvilLyrics.exe"
start "C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe"

Try this
Code: [Select]
@ECHO OFF
start C:\"Program Files\EvilLyrics\EvilLyrics.exe"
start C:\"Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe"


That works at least here. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that or like
Code: [Select]
C:\"Program Files"\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe


But as I said, at least it works that way

If you want to avoid using quotes in a batchfile you can replace the Windows-names in your path with DOS-names instead, e.g.
Code: [Select]
@ECHO OFF
START C:\PROGRA~1\FOOBAR~1\FOOBAR~1.EXE
START C:\PROGRA~1\EVILLY~1\EVILLY~1.EXE

associate your mp3's with your new bat file?
Code: [Select]
Shift+rightclick an mp3 -> Open with -> Choose program... -> Other... -> browse to your .bat file -> ok -> Check "always use this program to open these files" -> ok
