' Author:    Pat Garner

' Date:        1/8/97
'
'
' Scriptname:    Multiple Drawing Converter
'
' Version:        2.0 Beta
'
' Changes:        Moved All Script options from
'                input boxes to a 'UI' dialog.
'
'
' Description:    Script asks for a directory and filetype
'                sufix, and then creates a list of files
'                of the specified filetype from the specified
'                directory and then attempts to sequentially
'                load, save, and close all files in the list.
'                You also have the option to print files both
'                before and after conversion as well as exit
'                the application upon script completion.
'
'
' TurboCAD (TCADAPI) Functions used in this script:
'
'    - TCWAppExit
'    - TCWLastErrorGet
'    - TCWDrawingNew
'    - TCWDrawingOpen
'    - TCWDrawingClose
