nope - and installing over old version is fine, just make sure its the new version you're running by checking the title in the caption.
i will check code and see if i see anything - this is definitely something we want to make sure is handled properly.
so its a shortcut on start menu that it's launching, which is setting a working directory in the shortcut - is the working directory different from the application directory?

i've had this problem before when you have two-on top windows in the same application - i will fix it.
i've seen this in other apps too and is seems the program is hung. here is a quick trick for when this happens with any program: use alt+tab to switch to the application - the hidden window will suddenly jump on top and the program is not hung anymore.

what you are asking is a feature everyone wants and it is coming soon it just hasn't been written yet  It is being called QuickPaste - and it will behave exactly as you say - and you will be able to choose what shows in the menu by changing the QuickPaste group to customize it the way you want. It should be added in the next week. CHS still has a ton of new features that will be added in the upcoming days+weeks. See the todo list in the help file for more of what is planned. keep the suggestions coming, they're great! clcl looks nice, i will take a closer look at it to see what features wouldbe nice to add to chs.

you know, you've given me an interesting idea.. like perhaps a way to have something like a "hint" file, that told f&r that certain keywords should be associated with certain files in certain locations. so that if you typed certain things it would show you them. so if you typed display properties it would know to show you the display propties control panel items, etc. the Group Alias stuff already does this to some extent, but it's a little more manual.. i'll think more about this.

i notices the same problem as you, i want to use the band to group by days but its grouping by seconds - i will try to figure out a solution.
I'm not sure why the band config button wasn't turning it back into the normal view - what exactly was happening when you push the button - nothing?

you know, thats a brilliant idea. basically you are suggesting that one could run a "server" program on another computer with a fast internet connection. and then on your pc, you right click a file and say "remote download" and it basically sends a message to the remote server you have configures and tell its to queue up the file for download. very clever idea.

here are some things i love about winzip and winrar which i use often: both can make self extracting executable (sfx), that can also be unpacked by a right click drag operation - i just love that. i working with drag and drop and in shell all the time, so right click context menu extensions are super important to me. both winrar and winzip both handle this great. if you select 10 zips or rars, you could right click drag and you get options to unpack them all into destination dir, or unpack all each into their own named subdir. for me personally thats the first way i would eliminate candidate apps that don't provide those functions.
no archive app that doesnt offer me that will ever be used by me.
i also mentioned this before but i LOVE the file splitting support in winrar - it's just perfect for if you want to split up files, because it can add strong encryption, and great compatibility, and nice options for how to split. so thats a real plus in my book.
for compatibility you can't be zip format, which is very important if you plan to share files. another advantage: you can get free programs that will create zip files, and create sfx zip exes, but only the official rar/winrar can make .rar files, which i think sucks.
i will take a much deeper look at some of the candidate programs and give a better opinion. i know that 7-zip has a good reputation among some good people so i think i need to give that especially another look.
and i am curious to hear what jibz thinks..

DonationCoder.com Software / Screenshot Captor / Re: Make the "Filename prefix" 'stand alone' from the template
|
on: August 14, 2005, 01:25:21 PM
|
|
i think some people will want to use the quick name (file prefix) to OVERWRITE the template. other people will want to use a template always but use the quick name to ADD some info.
for example, i like to have date on my files always, so i would like template to specify date and i use file prefix to add custom name to file.
but i think we can satisfy all desires if we do what we said here, which is to OVERWRITE by default, but if user wants they can add %QuickName% in template or %T% in the quick name and then it will combine them.
