Any file like Word document, PDF-Document. Or CAD. Select files to print and use the command.

Don't understand.. you want a MultiScript function to get a list of files for a folder and subfolders. ?

Thanks for the reply Mathias.
The code above was the DOS solution for something I failed to get MS to do.
I wanted to search a folder, its' sub-dirs & select files & then run a process (e.g. get source folder; select *.txt, *.jpg, *.bat in the folder inc sub-dirs; delete).
I couldn't determine how get MS to recurse & "do" in the way the DOS command does, which I needed as I wanted to handle several different file types in nested folders.
Assuming MS cannot do this (& it is not just my incompetence!) I'd like MS to have this functionality.

--- Code: ---@var $options[] = {“RECYLE”};  "NODIALOG"   
DeleteFiles($array, $options);
--- End code ---
  (Maybe Recyle needs to be spell-checked?  :P)

DeleteFile already support NODIALOG option.. and RECYCLE. it is actually the documentation that misspell it. the code actually require it as RECYCLE

// Deletes all selected files to recycle. No confirm dlg, no progress

--- Code: ---@var $filenames = GetSourceSelectedPaths();
@var $options[] = {"NODIALOG", "RECYCLE", "NOPROGRESS"};
DeleteFiles( $filenames, $options);
--- End code ---

You mean native own printing. Than MC would have to be able to open and render all those format.. Sorry that will not happen
But if you have office install and right click on an office file.. you get print option in the shell context menu. But then Office is handling the printing.

Thanks for the info Mathias.
I tried RECYCLE & it seemed to fail in the debugger, when I added it as RECYLE  it worked (!) so I figured that it was just sth that slipped through.
& it has been working for weeks as a button, it was adding NODIALOG  that caused it to fail... perhaps somehow the combo of RECYLE with NODIALOG reveals the error?
Running the debugger today the options all appear to work (I didn't realize that I could use NOPROGRESS) with the caveat that the files selected do not appear to go to the recycle bin, & running this routine in the debugger multiple times caused MC to simultaneously close when I closed the Explorer recycle bin window (this had been opened after the routine to check for the files).  Did it 3 times in a row. 
Wondering if the options need to be in the order shown or if can I use them in any sequence? 
I will have to try & fully test all this again later on..... ::)
I will let you know what I find ;)
