1  DonationCoder.com Software / Finished Programs / Re: DONE: KeyMOUSE (Control your mouse with keyboard keys) on: January 16, 2013, 11:45:58 PM
Do you accept any feature whishes?

3 things would be nice, imho:
- An additional movement method: By <x> pixel (either Speed or Pixel can be active)
- I would be great if your software could be used to move / resize windows by using
an editable modifier key and the cursor keys (with Pixel option). It isn't possible while
holding "L" because it will repeat the left mouse clicking
- A portable version (even .net applications can safe their config to the current app dir / a user specific dir instead of something like "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\MoveYourCursor\Key_Mouse_Donation_Coder._Url_<many chars>\<version>\")
2  Main Area and Open Discussion / General Software Discussion / Ram Disks with Dynamic Memory Management? on: December 30, 2012, 06:05:31 PM
Hey,

is anyone aware of Ram Disks that support  Dynamic Memory Management, apart from Primo Ramdisk?

DMM = The Ram Disk releases any memory that isn't in use anymore (because files were deleted inside the Ram Disk).

E.g.:
Your Ram Disk is set to 8GB
It is currently empty
Now you copy a 4GB file to it, it occupies 4GB of Ram afterwards.
You delete the file and a few seconds later it's back to (nearly) 0.

Primo is rather expensive (I'd like to use a Ram Disk on Windows Server 2012, if possible)...

I set ahk hotkey Control Click to send the foreground key combination and Shift Click to send the background key combination if chrome is the active window.

Like to share your ahk script, MilesAhead?

Until now I didn't find any issues with the latest (.04) version.

Response time is much! better when FARR is not on the exclusion list of MSE but still a little bit unpredictable. In most cases it only needs half a second (although it's never instant) to display it's results but sometimes (about 1/5 of all searches) up to about 4 seconds. Apart from that, a great step forward.

Hi mouser,

Redownloaded again, now I have the "Speed up display..." option smiley

I've thought about if there are any major differences between those 3 machines and the most important one is:
The main doesn't use any virus scanner, the other two have Microsoft Security Essentials installed...

So after adding the FARR executable to the process exclusion list... FARR's search results are instant now,
regardless if I change any settings from one of your screenshots Wink

This should have come to my mind earlier, sorry mouser!

Thanks for taking the time to help me out.

1. It's fast when I run the same search a second time
2. I don't have this setting ;(

I'm running v2.107.01
and an image of the display options setting screen is attached.

8  DonationCoder.com Software / Find And Run Robot / FARR slow searching/pauses - tips on: September 20, 2012, 05:31:24 AM
Hi mouser,

I use FARR to scan only three directories:
1.) C:\TBOS\%COMPUTERNAME% (search depth = 1 | file extension = exe)
2.) D:\Tools\.Shortcuts (search depth = 0 | file extension = lnk)
3.) D:\Users\%USERNAME%\Tools\.Shortcuts (search depth = 0 | file extension = lnk)

The first one contains one subfolder with two subfolders underneath which have 2 .exe files.
2. and 3. contain only .lnk files which point to .exe files that are placed in a parent folder structure like
D:\Tools\VLC\vlc.exe
or
D:\Users\%USERNAME%\Tools\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe

Overall there are about 160 .lnk files.

On my system (Win 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 German | Samsung 830 SSD) everything is fine, search results in FARR appear instantly.

I have two other systems with the same operating system and the same ssd (but slower prozessors and less ram) which
behave absolutely different.

Search results need up to 10 seconds before they appear (and FARR is not responding when you click e.g. on the title bar in that time) but the status lines always says that the number of results was returned in 0 (instead of the real amount) of seconds.

These machines use exactly the same FARR setup (like my main machine) and the number of .lnk files are much less (about 40).

I think it must be some problem of icon caching that makes FARR so slow but none of the 3 machines uses a tweak or special (registry) setting that influences the Windows icon cache... Deleting the icon cache and rebuilding it by opening these folders with windows explorer doesn't help and I've changed all settings inside FARR (Incremental search on each keypress, Delay search start based on..., Resolve shortcuts when searching..., Resolve shortcuts when adding..., etc.) that could be related but the problem persists.

Any hints on how to find out what hampers FARR's performance so much on the two other machines?

Regards,
Highend

My condolences, too.

I've lost my older brother 12 years and my father 11 years ago (and I was 26 at that time) and even I don't know what to say to somebody
to support him in his grief. It's a german saying "Die Zeit heilt alle Wunden" (time heals all wounds) but unfortunately this is completely untrue ;(

When time goes by it's only getting a tiny bit better.

I wish you all the best.

Your "regex" is wrong.

$findand.*setup

is what you need. It'll find findandsetup and all other combinations of findand <everything> setup.

17  Main Area and Open Discussion / General Software Discussion / Re: FreewareGenius.com: The Best Free Compression / ZIP program on: March 05, 2012, 08:02:48 AM
I'm just missing Bandizip (http://www.bandicam.com/bandizip/) in that comparison.

Portable version, can be used in scripts and has a nice progress bar while beeing invoked from cli.

I've did a short speed comparison myself:
Source: 5795 Files, 566 folders, 1,05GB
Source and destination are on the same partition

Compress command lines:
WinRAR.exe a -afzip -r "D:\winrar_Test.zip" "D:\Test\*"
Bandizip32.exe /archive "D:\bandizip_Test.zip" "D:\Test"

Extract command lines:
WinRAR.exe x "D:\winrar_Test.zip" "D:\new_Test\"
Bandizip32.exe /extract "D:\new_Test" "D:\bandizip_Test.zip"

Packer | Extract Time | Compress Time | Compressed Size (MB)
--------------------------------------------------------
Winrar  |        18        |       58           |          870
BandiZ |        18        |       58           |          869

Not bad for a free alternative.

Can I put Mint on it as a dual boot easily?

At least you can try. Nobody knows if something will go terrible wrong Wink It's boot manager (grub) will (most likely) find your Win 7 boot record and include it in it's own. Make an image of you current installation before you go dualbooting smiley

I just looked up my invoice and in my case, I bought, thanks to BDJ, a 2 computer license for $14.98 and the lifetime free upgrade (+50% to base price) was a whopping $7.50 giving me a grand total at check-out of $22.48.

That's nice. I hope the new BDJ offer will allow us to get the lifetime upgrade for such a low price, too  Kiss

I'll throw in another vote for IFW/IFL, a really solid and reliable tool. Been using it for the last 4-5 years, and it has yet to fail me

Yeah, same here...

I use http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/tbosdt.htm as well in conjunction with IFD to implement two simple commands that I invoke with FARR,
called "backup" and "restore". They reboot my machine and perform the associated actions. It's all preconfigured, nothing more has to be done.

It's worth every single cent I spent on it  Kiss

It is only a few dollars (less than ten) more if I remember correctly.

Is there a way to double click on a .mp3 file in e.g. XYplorer (great file manager with portable file associations) and Trout opens (regardless if it was running before or not) and plays exactly this file? Atm it will only append the clicked file to the playlist and from time to time I just want to listen to the files that I select inside XYplorer instead of the files that are in the Trout playlist.
25  Main Area and Open Discussion / General Software Discussion / Command line ftp client with specific features? on: February 23, 2012, 05:39:42 PM
Hi,

does anyone know of a command line ftp client that:

- is a native x86 windows application (no crosscompiled cygwin stuff) -> I get problems with international chars like german umlauts

- supports scripting (can load a file which contains all the ftp commands that should be executed)
e.g. <ftpclient.exe> /script="<scriptname>"

- allows using ssh2 keyfiles in addition to user / pw logins (without the need for pageant or any wrapper app)

- is able to autoaccept a ssh2 server hostkey without bothering to accept one manually (providing the fingerprint in the script is ok)

- supports either a put or mkdir command that is able to create the recursive folder hierarchy for the destination file automatically
e.g. put öäü.hmtl /users/public/test/html/ or mkdir /users/public/test/html/
where /users was the only folder that existed before invoking the put | mkdir command

Tunnelier's sftp.exe and WinSCP's winscp.com commands support all these features with the exception of the last feature (put / mkdir).

Does anyone know a different command line client, that has all of these features?

P.S.: Ofc I talked to both companies if it's possible for them to integrate this feature wish. Both stated: Nice idea, maybe we'll
incorporate it in a future version. It's been a year now...

Highend
