I just learn about you getting married. All the best to you and yours. And keep on coding. --superticker

I don't think I've ever used that right-click menu. ...certainly not the paste-as-file bitI haven't used this Paste-As-File feature before either. This feature is almost too clever. You need to make a directory-oriented program [such as Windows Explorer] your front most window, then invoke the Paste-As-File operation [say with Ctl+Alt+V to reach the right-click menu, then select "Additional actions on last clip (...)", and then select the "Paste Clip as File.." menu item] to make it work.-IainB (June 27, 2017, 02:07 AM)
... if it's pasting into an application window, then what's the file name associated with Paste-As-File used for?Okay, if I click the Desktop, then invoke the Paste-As-File feature, I get a file created on the Desktop with the associated Paste-As-File file name. That works nicely. Interesting feature.... I've been using CHS for several years and didn't even know it could do this.-superticker (June 26, 2017, 10:14 PM)
... made the "Separator String" edit box ... where you could select from some presets like ("\n" or ",")?I like the idea of having presets as long as one of the presets is "no separator". The simplest solution that works is best.-mouser (August 23, 2013, 04:09 AM)
I use the Addict Spell Check library to manage all of the spelling stuff.... more about it ... here:

... it may only make those available for read-access as additional dictionaries, and insist that the actually modifications be done in an exclusive dictionary file -- or it may let you then choose a dictionary in that directory to use as the one to add to, I'm just not sure.-mouser (August 23, 2013, 02:05 AM)
... this [dictionary program] can READ the Microsoft Office dictionary, [but] it will not modify it.-mouser (August 23, 2013, 02:05 AM)
If you want to "experiment" because I'm not sure this will work, try adding a line to your ConfigDir.ini that says:I'm assuming DICTIONARYDIR is providing read-only access to third-party custom.adu files, correct? After all, if it write locks them, that will hang any third-party applications when they try to update their private copy of custom.adu. Of course, if a program only briefly write locked custom.adu, that may circumvent this problem. After all, end-users wouldn't be updating several custom.adu spell dictionaries at once.
DICTIONARYDIR = put_full_path_to_another_app_directory_containing_your_other_custom.adu
and then see if it shows up in your chs spell configuration list of dictionaries available.-mouser (August 23, 2013, 01:17 AM)
For all of my programs, if you edit a file called ConfigDir.ini in the application directory, you can override the default configuration directory of any of my programs.I edited ConfigDir.ini so-mouser (August 22, 2013, 04:56 PM)

On Windows 7, I've tried defining the fileWell,... attempting to locate my custom dictionary, custom.adu, into my roaming profile (i.e. %APPDATA%\DonationCoder directory) fails altogether. So are all custom dictionary files "hard coded" to be in the %ProgramFiles%\Clipboard Help+Spell\Dictionaries directory no matter what?

Well, what else can it be? Sometimes (75% of the time) I can run the game and exit without any problems. Other times, if I enter, then exit the game for 5 seconds, things are sluggish afterwards. Logging out and back in always fixes it immediately.That is a very good question - I just wouldn't expect anything as "near kernel level" as thread scheduling to be fixed by a mere relog.-superticker (February 23, 2013, 12:49 AM)-f0dder (February 23, 2013, 06:54 AM)
It might be the game latches on to a Windows resource and fails to release it upon exiting. Logging out simply releases that resource. I've tried debugging it with process explorer without success.Process explorer would be my best bet to start with. There's nothing fishy to spot? Is CPU and memory usage (both the overall as well as looking at individual processes) at normal levels, or is anything spiking? Can you describe the effects of the sluggishness?-superticker (February 23, 2013, 12:49 AM)-f0dder (February 23, 2013, 06:54 AM)
It's so bad, that after quitting this program, the time-slice quantums are adjusted by Windows XP to make all the other programs sluggish.What? - is that actually what happens?-superticker (February 22, 2013, 04:19 PM)-f0dder (February 22, 2013, 05:13 PM)

I can now confirm that the new-clip sound is played when the CTRL-ALT-C fails to capture the new clip with version 2.17.1. But it's also worth noting that this now occurs very rarely (under WinXP 32-bit). Something must have changed to reduce the affect of this race condition.I'm trying a fix in the new version about to some out, let me know if you notice any improvement.Yes, I'll check for the race condition. But I may need to run it for a week or two before I can say for sure if it actually went away. With these nondeterministic problems, it's hard to be sure.-mouser (October 19, 2012, 10:03 AM)-superticker (October 19, 2012, 10:28 AM)

The service gives users the ability to sample the content before they buy,... Those who are not satisfied can get their money back within 30 minutes.I see an article ..., read it, decide it is crap, and get my money back. The content provider thinks I am abusing the system, tells Google, and they disable my Google account.-daddydave (October 04, 2012, 04:41 PM)
Perhaps you could "temporarily" add a timed delay between the simulated CTRL-C and the next operation to see if that fixes it. If it does, then you've discovered where the race condition is. Once you know that, you can design a callback completion routine so you don't need the timed delay.One is that the new clip was never captured at all by the CTRL-ALT-C operation.It could be that when its sending the simulated Ctrl+C keypress, it's getting tripped up over the alt key still being held down, or over losing focus in the active window--that's the kind of thing that could happen unpredictably.-mouser (September 24, 2012, 08:41 AM)
The problem occurred again, and the new clip isn't present even after searching the entire database. But I did try pasting what was in the current Windows clipboard buffer and, to my surprise, it's not the new clip. Rather, it's the previous clip in the New folder.Have you tried searching the entire clip database for the text to see if maybe its just going into the wrong group?I'll try that next time it fails. That's an interesting idea.-mouser (September 17, 2012, 03:41 PM)-superticker (September 17, 2012, 04:05 PM)

appending clips was going to be added to CHS, has this been done?I think the existing merge function is much more powerful than any append function because you can selectively pick which clips you want to merge and which can be ignored (as append mistakes). And with the SHIFT key, you can quickly select contiguous clips to merge.-delgado92651 (September 17, 2012, 02:14 PM)
As for the not always capturing--that sounds like a real bug i haven't seen.. Any more clues about it?You worked on this bug before about 1.5 years ago, and the fixes you added did improve it. But occasionally, it still fails. What I can tell you is the capture sound always plays even when CTRL-ALT-C fails to capture anything. I'm usually doing this capturing in my email client (Courier) to correct spelling, although other apps are affected as well. I'm running Windows XP SP3 and CHS 2.11.01.-mouser (September 17, 2012, 02:12 PM)
