Updated ScriptLineCounter to version 1.7.0.0What's new/changed: - Added: New FileFormat nr. 5, for reading data from CSV files (comma-separated or tab-separated), having a first row with column-names, and a "Name" and optional "Text" column. Columnnames can be configured from the command-line and .ini, details in the readme file.
- Changed: The -pe encoding parameter is now (also) applied for reading .txt and .csv files, if it has been set/changed from the command-line or GUI.
TODO: (in priority-order) - Fix any bugs or issues reported (3 until now
) - Improve and expand the GUI interface (partially done)

I've seen that done, about 12 years ago, using a set of directional wifi antennas, using the signal-reflection on a large office-building's metalized windowpanes, exactly because line-of-sight wasn't available. The total distance was a few kilometers. They used 803.11b speed (11 MBit/s...) I think  . I wasn't involved in the process, though, so don't have much details.

Main Area and Open Discussion / General Software Discussion / Re: Best JAVA IDE

I have been using Genuitec's MyEclipse IDE (obviously based on Eclipse) for the last 7 years. Yes, it costs --- a whole $63 per year for the Pro edition, but I find it has some productivity features that makes it worth it.
We had a professional subscription for several years up until about 3 years ago, but it never gave us much improvement over plain Eclipse, in case of features that we made actual use of. The last 2 years the updates came really slow, and really incompatible with newly updated plugins we used, so we switched to standard Eclipse, and bundled it with the most common plugins for our company-usage, and everybody is happy again (maybe except Genuitec  ) And a few teams also use or switched to NetBeans.

Biggest worry here is what IE-specific web apps break this time, after upgrading... Yes, I know it's the task of the developer to try and anticipate on any browser changes, but with IE the changes often seem to be so huge, anticipation is next to impossible. We'll see how the story goes, this time, I'll wait a couple of weeks and ask around a bit

it does if you install on a version of windows prior to vista; after vista i got cold feet about having the program run after installation because i wasnt sure if there were cases where it would be running as the "wrong" user -- i.e. as administrator instead of normal user account. i should probably go research what the "accepted" policy about this is..
We've talked about this subject before, and the generally accepted practice is ( my extract from the Inno Setup newsgroups) to offer the optional execution of the application after the installer has finished. Even when on Windows Vista and later. Users hardly ever start a setup using 'Run as Administrator' and those who do usually know what they are doing, so the chance of SSC being run as an administrator is fairly small. And not a big security risk, imho.

If you want to check upon a service in irregular intervals and decide to restart it if it's not running, then you can use NirSoft's ServiWin. Run it when you need to do a check, and restart the service that was stopped or paused.
If you need a service (or application) to stay up and running 99.99% of the time, then use KeepUpApp. It will (re)start the service or application, and optionally un-pause a service that gets paused, if you set the corresponding checkbox. KeepUpApp is not for beginners or computer-illiterates, they usually won't need the functions provided by KeepUpApp.
