#11 Load a list file from a txt ? or csv ?

[remizik]

Hi :)
another suggestion :

Sometimes I want to ping a list of machines that i have in a XLS file.
That would be great to be able to import it in GUIPM.

Or from a text file if it's easier?
like this :

Hi!

What do you say to add mutliple ping by paste them to quick ping edit line separated by some chars (space, comma, semicolon etc.)? If you copy/paste your list from screenshot to this line edit they should be separated by space, I could then split them and start ping each of them :)

Cheers

That'd be great.
although i'm mostly working with excel files, so when I paste it, it looks like this.

S-FR-CAO-110
S-FR-CAO-260
S-FR-CAO-160
S-FR-CAO-060
S-FR-CAO-381
S-FR-CAO-120
etc ...

maybe an option in the settings to define what's the separator is ? (line like this example, comma, space, semicolon, etc ..)
maybe too complicated.

you decide ! :)

edit : or maybe autoreplace (when we paste in the field) the line jumps by spaces, if it's easier for you
edit 2 : haha, nevermind, there is an option in notepad++ to replace line jumps by space automatically so spaces would be a perfect separator for me :) (but also a setting to decide between space/commas/semicolon etc .. would be nice :) )

cheers !

Probably you don't have to replace CR or LF (line jumps) by spaces in Notepad++, you can directly copy-paste from Excel :) When I copy from LibreOffice calc it works :) I will add this fetaure but I have to do some clean up in code first.

nice, that's perfect. Thanks a lot :)

I have uploaded v.0.7.59. You can copy-paste multiple hosts from Excel (I have tested on LibreOffice Calc) to quick ping line :) GUIPM split hosts string spearated by:
space (0x20),
tab (0x09),
comma (0x2C),
semicolon (0x3B),
cariage return (0x0D),
line feed (0x0A),
cariage return + line feed

wow, it's works so nice !
even with double spaces, mixed with commas, tab, all in the same paste ! you did an amazing job there !
we're close to the perfect ping app !! :)
can't wait for the ping range tab wink wink

cheers, have a nice week end
