First, a comment - seems like just about everybody here has switched to some other dashboard for daily use. I've been using Avalaunch and UnleashX for a while now and just got around to checking out MXM. All told, MXM seems to have quite a few rough edges, and there really isn't anything in it that makes me want to ditch UnleashX as my default dash - EXCEPT SCRIPTING! Boy I really like the ActionScript funcitonality of MXM, and I can see myself using MXM as a utility more than a dashboard because of it. My install CD (now using evox in a setup very similar to Slayer's) is currently being re-written to utilize the glory of MXM ActionScripts. Enough fawning, onto the questions.

First, the situation: I mod a lot of xboxes for resale, and I do everything I can to make sure that the software I load on those boxes is stable and simple. My average customer doesn't know the first thing about computers, nevermind having any ability to run an FTP program, so simplicity is really an overriding factor. Because of that the xboxes I resell use Avalaunch as the default dashboard. For game management, nothing out there really beats the one-button simplicity of the Px HD Loader. It's ugly, but it makes it drop-dead simple to a) copy games from dvd b) see how much free space you have, and c) delete games to make room for new games, all in one easy interface. As we all know, the one big downside is it's retarded folder naming standard. I found DBZRacer's script for renaming the folders useful, but I wanted something even more simple.

So.... I'm working on using MXM as a sort of utility with one function: rename PxGame folders to the XBE game name and back again if desired. I want this to be easy to launch from Ava (or whatever) and simple to use. I've removed all the prompting from the script - when you run it, it just goes ahead and renames all the folders in E:\HDDLoader and F:\HDDLoader and then displays a brief message telling you what it's done. Here's what I created (again with a heavy debt to DBZRacer)
