DonationCoder.com Software / Finished Programs / Release: On Screen Button That Sends Keyboard Commands: WinButtons 3.6.1.0
|
on: October 23, 2012, 03:19:25 PM
|
WinButtons just learned a new trick: Drop a .ini or .wbuc file (with a valid WinButtons config inside) on it and it'll open that configuration, if no On Drop command is defined for the button you dropped it on. (Also accepts if dropped on the background or on an input control) Some bugs where ironed out of WinButtonEdit. Another update release of: and Download available from the release message, linking to my DCMembers pages. Updates can be downloaded also from the WinButtonEdit File/Check for updates option, using DCUpdater when installed. Any feedback or feature requests are still welcome, as usual

If you don't have a very special need for a ram-disk, then stay away from it. Current harddisk are quite fast, and SSD's are even faster. You shouldn't need it. When working with (multiple) virtual machines, the memory is used much more optimal for the VM's.

Edit 2 : Huh, I ran WinButtons by dragging and dropping the ConstanceJill.wbuc file on the EXE and it looks like it's working OK, except the "close" button isn't responsive (?)
Drag&Drop is in fact a feature of WinButtons, but not in the way you seem to expect: It hands the file to the drop-action defined for the button you drop the file(s) on, it doesn't use the .wbuc file as a configuration to open... (but I could make it do that, sounds quite logical, now that you mention it...) 2 possible easy ways to run that configuration file: - Rename the file to WinButtons.wbuc and run WinButtons
- or
- Use WinButtonEdit to register WinButtons as the default handler for the .wbuc extension (Options/Set file association for .wbuc/Open with WinButtons), and double-click or right-click/Open the file
1 somewhat less easy, but still convenient, way to run it: - Create a shortcut to WinButtons.exe, and add -f ConstanceJill.wbuc to the command-line (including a separating space from the exename)

DonationCoder.com Software / N.A.N.Y. 2013 / NANY 2013: Please post requests!
|
on: October 13, 2012, 01:52:18 PM

All, I'm trying to work up to a pledge for the NANY 2013, but am fresh out of idea's for projects. Things are quite busy in my head, so I'm not expecting to have idle-time there for idea-mulling  That's why this request: Please post request(s) here for an application/tool you need, and either don't have the time or the skills to create yourself (skills as in not being a coder).
The application/tool should adhere to the NANY rules, as in being 'New', etc., etc. As this is a general request, for any potential pledger, I won't limit your ideas to any area, so just drop ideas here, and hopefully there's a coder that can take the challenge o pledge and release for this NANY 2013 installment.
For those interested: I'd be happy to take a project that would span a couple of weeks worth of work, but of those weeks, only the evenings/nights are available, as I do have a daytime job (programming and programming-related). I'm not into games development or graphics-work/web-design, that's just not my cup of tea. I do code in Java, C#, AutoIt3, Delphi, and a few other languages, but that shouldn't limit your scope. My nickname at work is 'Tim* the Toolman' *) 'Tim' replaced by my firstname
