Batch change ROM filename?

[sean67854]

I'm working on curating my library for my Ayn Thor.  I've got it whittled down to just over 1TB, but I realized that a number of my ROM that could be zipped are not.  I'm working with a powershell script to batch zip them to bring the size down. 

Once that's done, can I edit the Nintendo DS.xml file (for example) in the Lauchbox>Data>Platforms folder to replace all of the .nds filenames with .zip?

Yeah, you could just edit the XML and do a search and replace replacing .nds with .zip. Need to make sure LaunchBox (and it's processes) are closed before doing so or there is a risk the LB save event will just overwrite your changes though.
