Title: sendmany in Electrum
Post by: inaltoasinistra on November 12, 2013, 02:46:48 PM
Is there any reason why Electrum (and Bitcoin-qt) doesn't support sendmany?

It would be nice if there was a graphical interface for this (maybe like Armory does it).

You can use the Tools > Create transaction > From CSV to send to many addresses at once.

I know and that is what I would use (or console, depends), but having a graphical interface to create a sendmany transaction would help users that have less knowledge about creating Bitcoin transactions.

how would that differ from the CSV input window?

Well, having a build in option to create such a transaction would be better for users with less knowledge about that stuff. You know how Armory does it right?

Easier than this? Tools > Create transaction > From CSV text

Code:

1rdymachKZpA9pTYHYHMYZjfjnoBW6B3k,0.01
1rdymachKZpA9pTYHYHMYZjfjnoBW6B3k,0.16
1rdymachKZpA9pTYHYHMYZjfjnoBW6B3k,1.35

Even that could be to hard for some people. Adding something like this would help (I mean the "+ recipient part", of course):

This is an awesome feature! I am sure it will come in handy.

Bitcoin-qt does support sendmany. Just click the New Recipient at the bottom left of the Send screen or using the RPC console.
And so does Electrum-1.9 if you use the Electrum console.

I understand how to do it with CVS but how do I do it with console? Do I use paytomany?
