my green friend needed an easy way to access tokenizing and all that stuff, so I wrote him a basic script...
Code:
$kixfile=readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.kix","")
if not len($kixfile) $kixfile = "KiXfile" endif
$KXfile=readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.kx","")
if not len($KXfile) $KXfile = "KXfile" endif
if not exist('%windir%\system32\'+@scriptexe)
 copy @scriptdir+'\'+@scriptexe '%windir%\system32\'+@scriptexe
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile,""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile,"","KiXtart KX File","REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile+"\DefaultIcon",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile+"\DefaultIcon","","%SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll,76","REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile+"\shell",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile+"\shell","","Open","REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile+"\shell\Open\command",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$KXfile+"\shell\Open\command","",'"%windir%\system32\'+@scriptexe+'" "%%1"',"REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$kixfile,""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$kixfile,"","KiXtart Script File","REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$kixfile+"\DefaultIcon",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$kixfile+"\DefaultIcon","","%SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll,72","REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+$kixfile+"\shell",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell","","Open","REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Open\command",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Open\command","",'"%windir%\system32\'+@scriptexe+'" "%%1"',"REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Edit\command",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Edit\command","",'"%windir%\system32\notepad.exe" "%%1"',"REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Tokenize\command",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Tokenize\command","",'"%windir%\system32\'+@scriptexe+'" "%%1" /t',"REG_SZ")
endif
if not len(readvalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Debug\command",""))
 $=writevalue("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\"+kixfile+"\shell\Debug\command","",'"%windir%\system32\'+@scriptexe+'" "%%1" /d',"REG_SZ")
endif

BTW? Woudnt be nice if the hole KiXtart package comes as an exe (compressed) file that do the stuff?
I mean copy Wkix32.exe to System32 and run FileAssoc.kix that you wrote for ppl to just run it in order to use it, and place the normal extracted files to the same folder.
Your thought jlo?
gnight man.

You didn't ask my opinion but I will give it anyway. I prefer KiX not to have any file associations whatsoever. What is wrong with just calling KiX and passing parms? If you want associations, you can run a script. If you want KiX locally installed, you can copy it. It should not be the default.

I agree with Les. No automated VBSCRIPT type junk for me thanks.

lol...
no, vbscript has good parts too.
it's there.
you go coding anywhere in MS world and vbscript is always accepted.
kix is totally another matter.
if you want to use it, you always need for forge it.
not best solution I say.

but, on the other hand. as Ruud has not to this date got stdout and stdin working, what can we expect more?

Associations are for the noobie GUI click happy people that don't know how to launch something on their own.

Can't believe I even see such from LINUX command-line basta

the point is, if you need to have gui, why don't you use it?

btw, added debug item in the above too

Doc - I agree to a point. If it is you developing the script then it is fine, but for the user populus - no way. I remember, MCA did an association with his KiXStrip/KiXRef programs too.

No problem - to each his own. Again that's the beauty of the PC I think... you have a choice for most things.

I choose not to associate, but for those that want it... there you go - Silver Platter code.

ja...
mca's assocs had always some issue with not being compatible with wkix32.
I did this mainly because I use wkix32.
I don't want to see console if I don't tell it to appear from the script.
now, with kix commandline centric thinking, I would always debug from commandline even though kixtart opens new window for it.
I would always need to launch tokenizing from commandline even though I have no other business.
and then, I would always need to do series of cd commands and in some cases even a drive change.
that's so painfull when everything can be automated with simple assoc.

nowadays, there is virtually no reason for me to launch "cmd" unless I do some pinging or nslookup.
for all other stuff, notepad and file assocs will do
and ie and...

what comes to me being a commandline basta.
well, not so much.
I'm one of those guys that don't even install linux before they are sure they get KDE running smootly.
and it must boot into gui mode.
that said, I always aim for the efficient and simple way, as I thought all lazy ppl do.
and file assocs suite that picture.

Would never have thought that Lonk.

Oh well, as long as it works the way you like, that's what counts.
