Convert Selected Graphics Folder to Binary Encoded Files - Ready Made Script

[M.Hasanin]

Hi All , this is not a question, its a script i want to share with you, its contribution script that maybe it will be useful for someone who need it, i need to convert many images to binary and only found scripts one by one to encode one image per time, so i wrote a script that will automatically convert all images to binary encoded text files, here it is :

//Convert Selected Graphics Folder to Binary Encoded  Files
//Written By : Mohammad Hasanin (M.Hasanin) in 19/8/2022

//Ask User Where is the Files
var selectedFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select a folder for Encoding Graphics Files");

//Supporting Multiple Format 
var GrphFiles = selectedFolder.getFiles(/\.(?:png|gif|jpg|jpeg|bmp|tif|psd)$/i);

for(var i=0;i<GrphFiles.length;i++)
    {
            //Collect Files, Files Names
            var myFilesName = GrphFiles[i].name;
            var myFiles = GrphFiles[i];
           
            //One Hit to Save new File with Same Name of Original Replacing the Extension with (*.txt)
            var myEncodedGrphFiles = new File(selectedFolder.fullName + "/"+myFilesName.replace (/\.(png|gif|jpg|jpeg|bmp|tif|psd)$/,'')+".txt");

            //Open and Encode
            myFiles.open ("r");
            myFiles.encoding = "binary";
            var temp = myFiles.read();
            myFiles.close();

            //Write Encoded Graphic Files
            myEncodedGrphFiles.open("w");
            myEncodedGrphFiles.write(temp.toSource ());    
            myEncodedGrphFiles.close();   
}

and for all the expert engineers that i learned from you,  thanks a lot and im still learning! , and will be happy to see many ways to skin the cat!, any suggestion or additional point of view to enhance?
