« Last post by paradisusvic on December 01, 2025, 07:16 AM »
Hello & good day once again, friends! 🙌 Thank you for keeping the GREAT DC community and spirit alive! :Thmbsup:

Just wanted to share that my current focus is on preparing Coding Snacks for N.A.N.Y. 2026:

https://www.donation...index.php?board=31.0

This month I’ll be working on completing the 2025 releases and going through the Coding Snacks section in anticipation of the upcoming N.A.N.Y. event.



It’s truly wonderful to celebrate another year of DonationCoder 🎉 Thank you all for keeping this community thriving! :-* It is deeply appreciated. 🤗

Ctrl+Left click on a favorite to bring up delete confirmation. Shift+Left click to edit one. Hover each favorite will tell you the details + options for future reference in a tooltip or should. :Thmbsup:

Also of note if its a category the category will disappear once all favorites in a category is gone. As the category goes based on the text category field of each favorite to add to a category or not.

This link still works.

Given the numerous old Android devices lying around and your constraints, I'd be tempted to:
- use an Android device set up without a Google account,
- install F-Droid or Aurora for your app store,
- install a browser,
- install a VNC server, (e.g. droidVNC-NG), or similar remote access server, (there's also MS's Phone Link if you want to try it - there's a few videos on YT),
- connect from your computer.

About as separate as you can get  :D

From ChatGPT, not tested but it looks correct:

Code: Text [Select]
  1. @echo off
  2. :loop
  3. rem Prompt the user for input
  4. set /p input="Enter search terms (space-separated): "
  5.  
  6. rem If input is empty, go back to the prompt
  7. if "%input%"=="" goto loop
  8.  
  9. rem Initialize the command pipeline with the list of files
  10. set "command=grep -i -r *.txt"
  11.  
  12. rem Split input into separate words (arguments)
  13. for %%a in (%input%) do (
  14.     rem Add each grep command with a pipe
  15.     set "command=%command% | grep -i %%a"
  16. )
  17.  
  18. rem Execute the command
  19. echo Running the search...
  20. %command%
  21.  
  22. rem Return to the prompt for more input
  23. goto loop

The prompt:
Can you write a dos batch file that when run will:
- prompt for input,
- separate the input into arguments,
- use grep specifically on the arguments in such a way that the results from the first argument are piped to a following grep for the next argument, and continue this way for as many arguments as given on all files matching the pattern *.txt within the directory it is run,
- output the results,
- return to the prompt for input when done.

You could optimise it a little by only fetching the list of txt files once and reusing it but unless you're talking about hundreds of files I don't think it's going to make much difference.

I didn't intentionally remove it from the google play store, but I guess they removed all my apps at some point because I did not keep up with some nonsense new thing they wanted me to do.
