ScriptGrabber

The initial release of ScriptGrabber, a versatile Windows application designed to help developers organize and consolidate their C# scripts from multiple folders into a single, well-structured document. This tool was created to enhance productivity by providing a quick reference to scripts, especially useful when interacting with tools like ChatGPT.

I wanted to be able to quickly gather all my scripts into one document so I can reference all my scripts as ChatGPT would get bogged down after a bit and the only thing I could do is start in a new window. While it does remember what you talk about now, I found that it would still forget stuff and the only way would be to "refresh" its memory. It would become tedious, so this app can quickly gather all your scripts and make a document to upload.

It will not add subfolders so you can specify exactly what scripts you want to add by choosing the right folders. Although I might add that later. Really just made it for my needs but in case anyone else finds this useful, here you go.

Features

• Add Multiple Script Folders: Easily add multiple folders containing C# scripts.
• Manage Folders: Remove individual folders or clear all folders with a single click.
• Project Description: Include a project description at the top of the generated document.
• Save and Load Projects: Save the current project setup and reload it anytime.
• Generate Consolidated Document: Compile all scripts into a single, well-organized document with clearly defined sections.
• Desktop Icon: Create a desktop shortcut during installation for easy access.
• Future Plans: Potentially support other file types based on user feedback and requirements.
