Batch/Script Dictionary: Matchmaker's Paradise
Watch the demo video here.
Built using Python 3.
In the spirit of automation, I have linked every single one of my Python scripts to a Batch file of a shorter name so that I can run it from "Windows Key + R" quickly. But even when I first started with Python I knew that I would, eventually, have a lot of Python script/Batch file pairings that I would forget which Batch file was linked with which Python script.
Enter the Batch_File_and_Script_Dictionary.
As soon as I learned about dictionaries in Python, I knew this would be a perfect fit. At the time, I didn't know how I wanted to implement persistent storage, so I gave up. But now, this script has the capability of opening the dictionary text document and loading in all of the pairs on start up, displaying them all, has a search ability that returns the pair if you know the Batch file name or the Python script name, ability to add and delete entries, and rewrite the file accordingly.
This helps me keep track of all of pairings and provides me with a quick way to look up which Batch file is paired with which Python script by also being able to run this from "Windows Key + R".
