Changing the date of a task does not work. Clears the date completely.

If you mean changing a task's due date: I just tried that and it worked. Can you be more specific in what you're doing exactly (an example maybe)?

I've been using Win+V to activate Paste in ClipX. Unfortunately, with Windows 8 Win+V is used for something else (by Windows itself). But since it's something I don't need, I'd rather disable the functionality for Windows and keep using it for ClipX. Anyone knows if this is possible and how to do it?

Thanks wraith808 for reviving the members discounts section!

Rule files now have to be UTF-8 encoded. Allows filenames such as 'Pämienabrechnung.PDF'.

I'm using the method described here to open the Windows Shutdown dialog from FARR.

Basically, you just have to put a shortcut to a text file called e.g. Shutdown.js with the following line

(new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application")).ShutdownWindows();

somewhere where FARR can find it.

Thanks mouser.

I added some documentation now in a README displayed on the above web site.

Am I already too late? The ruby script is available (see Web Page link in first post). I still have to document the rule file format though.

The privy works best for me 

Here's an example rule file:

[copy or print]
[match]
079 123 45 67

[variables]
dateLong=(\d\d)\. (Januar|Februar|März|April|Mai|Juni|July|August|September|Oktober|November|Dezember) (\d\d\d\d)
dateShort:5=(\d\d)\.(\d\d)\.(\d\d)

[move]
\\server\pl-office\bills\<dateLong:3>\<dateLong:3>-<dateShort:2> Telco - mobile.PDF

Both the match and the variables are regular expressions. The variables can then be referenced in the move expression (in angle brackets). :n references regex captures. The matched text is available via the implicit <match> variable. The :5 after dateShort specifies that the 5th match should be assigned to the dateShort variable.

[Basic]

I think limiting the number of options makes and application more accessible and more attractive especially to new users of your SW.

This is how the calendar app I'm using on iOS and Android is doing it:

only show basic settings:

Basic | Advanced | Expert | All

Category 1
 - Option 1
 - Option 2
 - Option 3

Category 2
 - Option 1
 - Option 2
 - Option 3


show basic and advanced settings:

Basic | Advanced | Expert | All

Category 1
 - Option 1
 - Option 1a
 - Option 2
 - Option 3
 - Option 4

Category 2
 - Option 1
 - Option 2
 - Option 2a
 - Option 2b
 - Option 3
 - Option 4
 - Option 5

It has 4 'level of detail' tabs at the top. Selecting one of these just adds / removes options in the list below (i.e. they act as a filter).

Yes, just renaming is also possible. I'll post an example tomorrow for you to see if it covers your case (though I think it should)

That is exactly what I'm doing. It's also supposed to work with documents with predictable structure (actually, predictable content), hence the rule files.

I've now and again tried to find an application that does just what pdfautomv will do but failed to find any. If someone knows such an application, even commercial (if it's not absurdly expensive), please let me know.

[NANY 2013 Entry Information]

NANY 2013 Entry Information

Application Name	pdfautomv (or pdfautomv Robot, haven't decided yet )
Version	0.2
Short Description	Moves PDF files into directories depending on embedded text
Supported OSes	Windows (and possibly Linux)
Web Page	https://bitbucket.org/phitsc/pdfautomv
Download Link	source available following above link. but I'll make a zip too.
System Requirements	Ruby runtime
Version History	0.2 - Rule files now have to be UTF-8. Fixed crash with -v 3 option.

Description
pdfautomv will be a simple command line utility (although perfectly usable with a simple double-click on a desktop shortcut) for the paperless office aficionado. Its purpose is to move PDF files from one directory to another based on the text embedded in the PDF file. My own primary use case is as follows:

1. Put invoice, receipt, letter, bank statement, whatever on scanner
2. Start scanning process => this will produce a PDF file in directory A
3. Repeat 1 - 2 until everything is scanned and directory A is full of files like Document.pdf, Document001.pdf, Document002.pdf, etc.
4. Double-click shortcut to pdfautomv.rb => marvel how all the Document bla bla.pdf files get nicely and neatly renamed and sorted into the directories where they belong

Usage
Installation
The application will be written in Ruby. So the Ruby runtimes have to be installed if they are not already. The application itself is just one Ruby file.

Using the Application
The application will rely on some "rule" files which have to be supplied by the user. A rule file specifies what pdfautomv should look for in a PDF file and where to move it and how to rename it if it finds a matching PDF file.

FARR was mentioned in a comment of a lifehacker article about the use of an application launcher:

http://lifehacker.com/596...ng-you-want?post=54622621

maybe it would be worth considering separating FARR's options into basic vs. advanced?

This one (from phitsc) where you have to re-activate the OS

It was really easy though. Download. Copy/Paste product key into supplied text file. double-click. Done. The script does everything, including the re-activation.

I followed these instructions to boot directly to desktop and it works:

(note that it's not the same as mentioned in comment #8, although also from winaero)

It's maybe also worth noting that the easiest way to install some plugins is using the DC Updater program (also by mouser), and fcalc being one of them.

Damn, I'm Swiss and have eaten tons of Toblerone ( according to Wikipedia, we Swiss have the highest per capita rate of chocolate consumption world wide ) and I didn't know about the bear!

The topic says: Germans. It's only one of them in the video though.

I hope you don't mind me bumping this thread.

Is there a reason why Ctrl + Shift + Left / Right should *not* also do a selection?

Please also consider fixing the word-boundary bug I report above.

WhatsApp is really popular here in Switzerland. But what these guys are doing is not only embarrassing, it's becoming suicide.

http://www.h-online.com/s...I-developers-1716912.html

The preceding article in German is even more concrete on the matter: apparently, it's not possible to cancel your account with WhatsApp (users report that the function to close the account in the app seems to do nothing), but once you have an account everyone that has your phone number and IMEI or MAC (depending on Android or iPhone) can send messages pretending to be you, even after you've uninstalled the app!

By the way, FARR is now ten and a half years old. 

Version 1.0, March 18, 2002 - First release

And some parts of it show (especially the options screen, with all these clipped labels) .

It's still a very good program though. So congratulations! 

I double-checked after I got that email from rewardli and indeed it wasn't stated that clearly. The FAQ is new. I agree with what 40hz said about volume licensing though. From the rewardli offer it wasn't obvious though that it was the volume license they used for the offer (well, that's not entirely true as the price steps matched the volume licenses, but I only learned that after the fact).
