need script to export text from multiple illustrator files to txt files

Hello.

 

I can do the following manually:

 

open an illustrator file (cs4, pc, windows xp); go to file, export, export text to a file with the same name as the illustration file (with the txt extension).

 

that results is a text file with all the call outs from my illustration in one text file. great.

 

however, i have hundreds of illustration files. I need to extract out the text for each file and save to text files for each. (as an aside, I wouldn't mind an option that would append text within one txt file; that is, allow me to list the source file "Illustration 201.ai; c/drawings... " followed by lines of text; followed by the next file name... followed by the next lines of text... etc.)

 

Does anyone know of a script that will do this in a batch mode?

 

Thanks in advance

 

RP
