Post New Requests Here / Create MP3's from folder names
« on: April 04, 2010, 10:47 AM »
When I'm using my MP3 player in the car I'd like to know the folder being played without looking at it.

With my Archos Recorder the amazing Rockbox software provided this ability. It went through your music library and created a sound file for all your songs and folders. Which played before the folder/file.

With the demise of my Archos i'm looking for a suitable replacement utility that will creat an MP3 based upon the folder name and place it in the folder so that it will play first.

Any suggestions?

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Replace Hourglass with Quote from text file
« on: April 20, 2009, 09:54 AM »
Occasionally when I load a large program or a huge data file  from a file server the omnipresent hourglass appears and spins away and away .....

IDEA:

HourGlassPane, or WaitData, or  LoadInfo or IdleWhile:

A program that displays as a tooltip or message box a line from a text file instead. A text file containing a  quote, joke, reminder, any little tidbit of information.  It shouldn't slowdown the loading but just replace the hourglass only when it is on the screen, with the ability to click on it to freeze the display.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Windows Explorer Hide/Show Toolbars
« on: October 18, 2008, 10:52 AM »
I'd like to see the maximum real estate of a Windows Explorer view devoted to seeing the folders/icons. A AHK taskbar button to turn them on or off would be great. Hide the status bar would help also.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Show Image of Keyboard on Desktop w current HotKeys enabled
« on: July 11, 2008, 02:06 AM »
I use a few AHK scripts and other software like: WinSplit Revolution (move a window to a specific position on your screen),&  Toggle Hidden that have hot keys assigned. I can never remember all that are active, since I always have different programs running for  different tasks.

Would be nice to pop up a keyboard graphic that shows the currently active hot keys and the programs that control them.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA : Vertical Scrollbar on LEFT side
« on: April 04, 2008, 01:18 PM »
I use Windows Explorer mostly for file management. In large folders to navigate you must scroll  on the right side of the screen then if you need to go up a folder you have to cross the width of the page. Tough to do often on a touch pad laptop. (It would be interesting to see how many extra miles my mouse has traveled because of this.) Would be very helpful if all windows apps could also have a left sided scrollbar. Like Office, IE ....
