Oh yes. He said his retirement was long over due.
And yes I mean 'rest' literally itself

Coworker who sees me looking at something in a browser: "Glad you're not busy; I need you to do this, this, this ..."

Coworker who sees me staring intently at a command prompt: Backs away, slowly ...

-panzer (December 14, 2020, 03:17 PM)

Fully agree.

Even looking at blank text editor or Excel or Word will ward them off but not a browser. I have found out.

Confirmed the stupid Google Drive Error. Also found similar reports all over the web for many apps.
As if False Anti-Virus reports where not enough for us poor developers that now Google also started creating problems.

Will make changes and create new link, sorry for the inconvenience caused by Google

Hi there, I cannot download this zip

Google says:
Sorry, this file is infected with a virus
Only the owner is allowed to download infected files.

I know it is a false positive, but how do I get around this?
I'd really like to try this App

Thanks for the information.

Let me check from another browser etc. I may make another link if problem.

General Software Discussion / Re: Software to easily and quickly browse a sound library (and hear previews)?

« on: December 10, 2020, 09:47 AM »

A freeware program named "1by1" might be worth a look:
https://mpesch3.de/1by1.html
I am not sure it handles tagging, but claims to make it quite easy to scroll through files and listen to them.

-irkregent (December 10, 2020, 09:02 AM)

I agree with irkregent and I use 1by1 for such requirement.
Small and fast.

N.A.N.Y. 2021 / NANY 2021 : Battery Icons - Released

« on: November 15, 2020, 02:05 PM »

NANY 2021 Entry Information

Application Name	Battery Icons
Version	1.5.2
Short Description	Displays customized Battery Percentage icons in tray-bar. Shows Tool-Tip at mouse cursor position, when battery percentage falls 25 or below, so that you switch on the power. Also shows Tool-Tip at mouse cursor position, when battery is fully charged, so that you switch off the power.
Supported OSes	WinXp+
Web Page	https://sites.google...ew/batteryicons/home
Download Link	https://sites.google...atteryicons/download

Description
Well the default windows battery icon is white and is very difficult for me to understand how much battery percentage is left. The white battery bar is too small to perceive if it is 40% or  below. I wanted windows to show color coded battery icon but could not find any option, so I created Battery Icons.

Further I found that when I am engrossed in my development, I even miss to see the red battery icon, (my customized one). So I made it to flash.

Also I added a Tool-Tip at mouse cursor position to show when battery level is below 25% or battery is fully charged, so that I can switch on/off the power.

Features

• Colorfull tray battery icons
• Select battery icons for battery level up to 25,50,75 and 100 percentage
• Flash battery icon when battery level less than or equal to 25 percentage
• Show tool-tip at cursor position when battery level less than 25 percentage
• Show tool-tip at cursor position when battery is fully charged

Screenshots








Usage

Installation
Unzip all the files into a directory you want, then launch it.

Non-Windows Software / Re: A good app for paste premade phrases and multimedia ?

« on: November 05, 2020, 08:26 AM »

For Android use Google Keyboard GBoard.

It has clipboard text save and pin etc., which I use as fixed phrase text.

Regards,

Anand

-anandcoral (November 04, 2020, 08:25 AM)

Installed. Seems very promising.
Do you use for insert in the messages frequent images ?

-Contro (November 05, 2020, 06:40 AM)

Never required images yet.
Fixed text phrase is all I needed mostly and use them.
