Abstract:
A generated first function queues identifying data of selected files from a file directory within a queue when the first function is activated while the selected files are selected for access by a user. A generated second function imports to and opens within a single application all files within the queue when the second function is activated. A generated third function provides options for manipulation of files that have been queued by the first function. The second function is activated while files are within the queue. The files are imported within the queue into the single application, wherein files of a first folder that have been queued by the first function and files of a second folder that are selected are imported concurrently. Each file placed within the queue and each currently selected file is imported into a single-user selected application via a single activation of the second function.
