Call CuteMap tool in TextPad

Post by mo » Sun Nov 02, 2003 8:12 pm

Another beginners script here convenient if you are always trying to figure out the sizes of images after you have closed your image editing program, or if you are actually putting together a lot of image maps.

This takes the image url selected and copied from a TextPad file and opening an instance of CuteMap (installed as a tool in TextPad) pastes it into CuteMap, retrieves the dimensions and sets up the html code for an image map for that image.

I made this into an .exe that I then installed as a tool in TextPad, so it's just a matter of CTRL+7 to do the whole operation.

Release ALT
