Where srt file will be exported in Windows OS? - PROGRESS 4GL - openedge

I use below scrolling dynamic query in order to see srt file in my system. But I am not sure this file is generating. I am using 10.2B version.
DEFINE QUERY qcust FOR customer SCROLLING.
OPEN QUERY qcust FOR EACH customer WHERE comments CONTAINS "customer"
OR comments CONTAINS "C.O.D.".
REPEAT:
GET NEXT qcust.
IF NOT AVAILABLE customer THEN LEAVE.
DISPLAY customer EXCEPT comments WITH FRAME q-frame 13000 DOWN.
END.

It also goes into the temp-dir (specified by -T or the pwd if not specified)

As #nwahmaet states - the srt files will be created in the folder specified by -T or the working directory. The files may be hidden. As you can see the dir command does not show the srt files. The attrib command does. Alternatively dir /ah does show hidden files too.

The easiest way to be certain where the SRT file is being created is to embed something similar to the following in you procedure:
message session:temp-directory.

How do I exactly search a file in my project with atom?

I know I have a file called 'mwc-fab' in my dependency,
so How can I search this file with the file name?
In vscode, i just type mwc with my node_modules file select and I get the file I want.
If you're using a Windows computer the command is Ctrl+T or Ctrl+P and on Mac Cmd+T or Cmd+P
https://flight-manual.atom.io/getting-started/sections/atom-basics/
There is an Atom package named incremental search that you can use to search thru open files. After installing incremental-search you can type command-i and this opens a text box near bottom of screen where you can input your search string. After that you can command-i repeatedly to go to next matching string. Be sure to read the directions for more useful commands.

Where is Atom keeping its state?

I'm on OSX and had a file open in Atom which I hadn't given a name to. I had to restart my computer and when it came back again I clicked the wrong thing and it forgot all the old file names, and the unnamed file seems to be gone without a trace. If I use Time Machine to restore the .atom file to an old state it detects that something is 'wrong' and pulls the most recent state from some other location (it gets recent filenames from somewhere). Any idea where it's getting that state from?
The literal answer to my question, found using some aggressive grepping, is ./Library/Application Support/Atom/IndexedDB/file__0.indexeddb.leveldb.
It appears to be that the dialog which caused Atom to forget my file list was shown as the result of a real bug rather than bad intentional UX.
Here are the instructions which got my file contents back (courtesy someone in the Atom slack channel):
Open the Chrome Dev Tools in Atom using Cmd + Option + I
Click the Application tab
In the tree view on the left of this tab, expand IndexedDB > AtomEnvironments and click on the table states
In the grid on the right, you'll see one or more entries keyed with editor-<some hash>
For each of those entries, expand the Object in the Value column and then expand this tree: Object > value > project > buffers
For each file in the "buffers" list, expand it and try to find the untitled file, it won't have a filePath property. The text field will have the file contents.

How to create a link that downloads a new file instead of opening the source file (rmarkdown)

My rmarkdown code produces a html document. This document lists out the process that needs to be followed by front line staff at month end. The process flow requires users to open xl files, update a few fields (such as report month etc) and then run macros.
I have used hyperlink to the original XL files as follows
[click to opel xl file](path/and/file names)
The above link opens the original file and the user is able to
overwrite the original file, I don’t want this to happen.
I want the hyperlink to generate a new file that would be downloaded
so that nothing happens to the original file. How to do this?
Please could you kindly help me out.
Thanks in advance
After extensive research, this can't be done using conventional rmarkdown!

Batch file write to txt

I want to make a batch file that will ask user for input, than write that input to a specific position in an already written txt file(called commands.txt which contains query) and call sqlite3 < commands.txt
I need this so inside the commands.txt where the query is, in LIKE 'userinput' i will add the users choice (parameter)
Although your question is not really specific enough and verging on the kind of inappropriate question that for stackoverflow (it does not include code), as hinted at by the comment, I'll take it at face value and assume there is much you need help with.
First let me deal with the question "I need to make a batch file"
A batch file is a simple text file with the extension .bat. You can create it with a text editor like notepad. We do not know what kind of system you have (Windows, linux, Mac etc) but lets assume Windows as you asked for a batch file. We do not know which version of windows (7 or 8 etc), So I'll try and be generic.
All windows machines come with a simpe text file editor called notepad. You can open this by typing notepad into the search box on windows 7 or 8. Lets start with a simple batch file:
:: This is a batch file
#echo off
echo Hello World
exit /b
Type (or paste) those 4 lines into notepad. Now select the file menu and select Save As, now in the Save As Type: selector choose All Files. In the File name: box type the desired name with the bat extension, such as doit.bat. Ensure you choose a suitable directory to place your new batch file. Leave the encoding as ASCII. Click Save. You have now made your first batch file.
Now you need to execute that batch file. Using the Windows File Explorer find the folder where you saved that batch file. While viewing the folder, hold down the shift key on the keyboard and then right click in the background of the folder and select Open Command window here. You will now have a command prompt window. You can now execute your new batch file by typing its name doit. It will display:
Hello World
OK - Now you have created your first working batch file.
Now for the next part; Asking the user for input. This is done with the set /p command. Add this to your batch file (before the exit line):
Set /P Like="Give me your input: "
echo Your input was: %Like%
That has solved the second part. Now the third part, edit the commands.txt file. If you do an internet search for a similar problem (editing files in batch files) you might find this help page: http://www.ousob.com/ng/edlin/ng96d9.php. This shows a generic way of changing any text string to any other in a file using EDLIN from a batch file; unfortunately EDLIN (and EDIT) are no longer included in windows so these batch files are not much help.
A search of stackoverflow finds similar queries which contain an answer for you.
So now you have all the parts of the answer:
How to make a batch file
How to prompt the user for input
How to replace lines of text in the commands.txt
You should be able to put it together and get it to work....

InDesign CS5 Script: How can you display a directory?

I have a script that:
creates a new folder
scans an InDesign document for images
formats the images and copies them to the new folder
When the script is done doing all of this I want it to bring to focus the new folder directory (in Windows).
As of now I am displaying the folder-path in an alert window, but I would rather it open the directory (if it isn't already) so the user can see the new files.
I wish I could just call one of these:
myNewFolder.bringToFront() : works only on program focus, i.e. -- BridgeTalk.bringToFront("photoshop")
myNewFolder.open() : seems to apply only to file I/O operations
myNewFolder.show() : seems to apply only to the Window object
...but none of these work.
EDIT: new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") does not work either...
You have to use the execute method.
myFolder.execute();
