Obsolete. Use FileExists or str.searchpath.
iff[-] file (tab)statements (tab)... [else (tab)statements (tab)...]
Can be single line:
iff[-](file) statements [else statements]
file - file to search for. Can be file or folder. Also can be drive. Can be full path or filename.
| - | not. |
Similar to if.
If file exists, executes statements after iff and skips statements after else (if used). Else skips statements after iff and executes statements after else (if used).
QM 2.3.3. Can be used as function. Returns 1 if the file exists, 0 if not.
If file is not full path, searches in these places. Works like str.searchpath.
iff("c:\m\x.txt") mac- "Copy" ;;if file exists, execute macro "Copy" iff-("notepad.exe") bee ;;if file doesn't exist, beep iff(s) out s ;;if file exists, show path. Path is in variable s iff-("$My Pictures$") end ;;if special folder doesn't exist, end macro Can be used as function if(iff("file1") and !iff("file2")) out "file1 exist; file2 does not exist."
