Subject: dired command on marked files
Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2008 21:13:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <g36dvo$h5b$1@tamarack.fernuni-hagen.de> (raw)
Hi,
I would like to use dired to create some plots using
xmgrace/gracebat. My idea is to mark some files and plot
them all into one diagram using something like:
gracebat <file1> <file2> ... <file n> -pexec 'subtitle "<title>"' -hardcopy -hdevice EPS -printfile "<name>"
Generally, I would use 'call-process' , but I have no clue, how I can create a call with variable number of files (depending on the marks).
In the end, emacs should ask for the 'title' and 'name'.
Does anyone have an idea or any suggestion, how I should do that?
Thanks!
Greetings!
Fabian
